Digital station Springnews TV was Monday fined Bt50,000 for airing a programme that violated the junta’s orders and broadcasting regulations, the broadcasting regulator said.
Pakdee Manaves, deputy secretary-general of the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission, said the NBTC’s broadcasting committee agreed to punish Springnews.
The subcommittee overseeing broadcast content found that the station’s “Face Time” programme showed controversial content about a social-media scandal related to student activist Netiwit Chotipatpaisal on July 20.
