The National Television Commission decided on Tuesday to investigate whether or not there was a conflict of interest between the investment firms that evaluated the value of the extensions for private television channels and the viability of creating a new one, after discovering that one of the members holds shares in both consortiums.
Meanwhile the board of directors of the Caracol channel abstained from approving the budget for next year, after considering the price of the concession license's extension, established by the Commission, puts the viability of the company and freedom of press in jeopardy.
