According to China Review News Agency, TVBS News Station, which recently applied for 55 frequency bits for cable TV systems, Dafeng and Taiwan Broadband Communications (TBC) 8, moved to 149 frequency bits and 158 frequency bits. "NCC" chairman Chen Yaoxiang said on the 5th that at around 10 a.m. this morning, "NCC" had rejected it, that is, TVBS does not need to be shifted. He also believes that TVBS is a good news station.
cable TV operators with millions of viewers TBC Taiwan Broadband Communications and Dafeng Cable Television recently issued a document to the "Communication Communications Commission (NCC)" to replace the TVBS news station, which was originally on Channel 55, and change it to "Mirror TV". Channel 55 TVBS News Station was moved to Channel 158 and Channel 149 respectively. Although this case is called authorization fee negotiation, it has caused sensitive political struggles. The fact that TVBS was applied for by cable TV operators was another hot topic of discussion after the 2020 Zhongtian News Station was forced to shut down.
The Legislative Yuan invited Chen Yaoxiang to give a special report on the "impact of the dispute in setting up a mirror television on the independence and impartiality of the 'Communication Communication Commission'" on the 5th and prepare for inquiries.
China's "legislator" Fu Kunqi asked several times, will the TVBS frequency shift case be shifted because of the wrong color? Will system providers apply for frequency shift in the future?
Chen Yaoxiang responded that at around 10 o'clock this morning, NCC had rejected the case, that is, TVBS did not need to move the frequency. Listing itself is a commercial mechanism, and there are similar issues such as frequency shifting every year. Whether to move frequency is applied by the system provider. Whether to change frequency requires the consent of the "NCC". In the past, there were many cases quarreling every year. The news channel was highly sensitive, so the case review will be handled very carefully, and it will also take into account consumer rights and issues related to market competition, including content diversity.
