Channel 2 news in trouble too

Difficulties in Channel 2 news company.

The decision to cancel the program, "Six with Oded Ben Ami' and 'Meet the Press', along with shortening the main news edition by 15 minutes, was received with shock in the company of Channel 2 News, "We did not believe it would arrive at us too, and we very much hope that it will stop here," said a senior member.

In an emergency meeting of the news company employees, at Neve Ilan, CEO Avi Weiss said that "Channel 2 is the most successful channel in the West, and in a strange way this channel loses a lot of money. We are budgeted by franchisees, and Channel 2 came to a point where there is no money.

"Today, the news company's board of directors met and decided on a series of very painful steps.

"Channel 2 has reached a state where it can not go on. To remind you - we, the news company, are last line. Franchisees have already canceled and postponed programs, cut wages, And now after network and Keshet, it also came to us."

The decision came in light of the Board's demand to cut of at least 20 million shekels from the company's budget.

The Board of Directors met today and made decisions.

According to estimates, the dismissal procedure of dozens of workers at Channel 2, will soon start.
