I noticed this morning two additional stories on the public TV scandal out of Berlin with the network RBB.
First, the board met (the RBB board) and discussed the severance pay situation with the former 'boss' of the network. They agreed.....no severance pay package. Odds of a legal action? Oh, I'd give a 99-percent chance. This might drag on for a year before it's finally settled.
Second, it's an odd story over at WELT and there's limited facts about this....but journalists have figured out that several cameramen have been paid for work...continually....while they haven't officially worked in several years. We aren't talking about pension or retirement type situations.....just work-hours and payment for them. Who knew about this? Unknown. Amount of money? Unknown.
I'll just say this....almost daily....there's some 'rock' overturned and another odd story about the public TV network. From top to bottom....someone needs to come in and be from far outside of public TV....to review their expenditures. Once done? The same group ought to go through all of the public TV networks.
