Title: Alternative classical music station Concertzender
Post by: otterhouse on September 04, 2009, 08:32:41 AM
The Alternative Dutch classical music station "de Concertzender" is under attack again...
Although there was a promise from Dutch minister Ronald Plasterk to support the station,
this promise was broken and the Concertzender has to stop it broadcasts on radio and internet.
1st of November... for anyone who knows this station, it would be a terrible loss if this would happen.

Well, time to take action again!!!
Please let the Dutch government know that the decision to stop the Concertzender is wrong
and unnecessary. Don't let the voice of this innovative station be shut down...

I was introduced to this station about a month ago and really like some of their programming.

What's the issue with it?  Why is it under attack?
