NMC Issues Final Warning to 12 TV Stations Over Unethical Content
Twelve (12) Television Stations have received what the National Media Commission (NMC) characterizes as final caution against the broadcast of unethical content through their medium.
In a report on a joint observation with the National Communication Authority (NCA), the Commission said the 12 TV stations repeated broadcasts they were cautioned against when their first monitoring was released in mid-November.
They include Asomafo TV, Adwenpa TV, Diamond TV, X TV, Funny TV, Big TV, Passion TV, Elephant TV, Best TV, Energy TV, Nkabom TV and Seekers TV.
“The following stations who were cited in our fortnight report continued to carry out their offensive broadcast after we publicly cautioned them. They should take note that this constitutes their final warning. Regulatory action may be taken against them without any further reference to them.”
