When it comes of radios, Kiss FM had 4 sanctions (including 2 fines worth Euro 3,500), Radio Zu (3 sanctions including one fine of Euro 600). Radio Guerilla had, in 2013, just 2 sanctions, but one of them was a serious one. CNA decided, on September 19th, to withdraw all radio’s licences because they were operated by another company than the one that owned the licence rights, Realitatea Media SA, something that’s forbidden by the audiovisual legislation. Moreover, Guerilla was fined RON 10,000 by CNA in 2013.
