Greece shuts down the radio and TV services of the state broadcaster ERT and suspends all employees as part of its latest austerity measures.

ERT, which began broadcasting in 1938, is funded by a direct payment of 4.30 euros (?3.80; $6) added monthly to electricity bills.
Do you think those charges will now be dropped from the bill ?

Greeks take cash from banks ahead of key elections.
If, for some insane reason, you have money somewhere in Greece, get it out.
Why worry ?
The IMF is slowly reporting another bailout needed, to make up shortfalls,
5-8 billion Euro. Remember Cyprus ?

Hadn't heard anything about Greece in quite a while.
Still spinning the drain I see.

Now maybe we can get the USA to stop taxpayer funding of National Public Radio and the Public Broadcast System.

If we did that 90% of the liberal talk shows would go off the air.
