he appeared another bill on the subject of television. The most disturbing symptom of the legislative echolalia is to pretend that a new law Messianically solve all the problems facing the sector.
Before I continue the flood of articles, paragraphs and derogatory, it is desirable that legislators knew the reality of the audiovisual industry. If they did, they would know that it is in compliance verification phase a decision of the State Council that while the authorities ordered the issue needed to promote competition and consumer welfare regulation sector. Instead of more laws, what is needed it is that the relevant officials sindéresis comply with the existing law.
The author of the new project is the Liberal representative to the House Amariles Diego Patino, who completely ignores one of the most critical problems of the television service: almost no antennas for television. Colombians depend on cable operators have to pay to see, both public and private free TV, as in almost every home is blocked access to the pipelines required to view freely.
yes Congressman is concerned is that “there is a market with asymmetric loads placed at a competitive disadvantage to formal subscription TV operators.” Then, to solve the problem for these operators the project aims to expropriate the rights of broadcasters and orders them to deliver their signals, thus taking sides in a dispute that is currently being heard by national and international courts.
Moreover, the draft leaves intact the deplorable governance model of television and the best chavista style, intended to regulate the operation in Colombia of audiovisual content on the Internet (Netflix, for example) and empower the authority to determine TV whim which events can only be transmitted by public operators. TV populism (the same “Football for All” Mrs. Kirchner), which, besides being impossible in practice artificially interferes competition squanders public property and does not protect at all the talent or the national industry.
