Public TV Chatter

 INSA, the polling group.....went out to Germans and asked....how do you feel about paying the public TV/Radio tax (set at 18.36 Euro a month per residence).

39-percent said they'd rather pay nothing at all.  

Rumor chatter over the past month indicates that ARD/ZDF (the public TV  giant) would like a 3-to-4 euro increase on the monthly fee (probably by 2025).

So far, the political parties have tried to stay away from the topic.  I would imagine both AfD and FDP parties would like to position themselves into situation where public TV in Germany reformed themselves....into a much lesser organization.
