Please reply to zliangas@xxxxxxxxx
More about ERA
Yesterday ERA has been heard back on 729 with poor signal . that possibly means a
low power transmitter has been used . 1512 Crete is now off and only 1260 Rhodes is
still alive . it also seems that the program is again from Athens as there was no
mention of ERA Thessaloniki

The courts in Iraklio, Crete have postponed the appeal of ERA and ERT employees
against the sudden closure of the public and radio stations in June, for the of 2nd
December.
The postponement came at the request of the lawyers for the State, because they were
unable to prepare without proper access to employee records, which are kept at the
ERT HQ in Agia Paraskevi, which is occupied by ERT employees.
The attorney of ERT and ERA employees Tasos Petropoulos claimed that the State was
simply stalling and stressed that the state does not want a decision before the
Council of State was first to rule on appeal.
The employees demand the annulment of the Presidential Decree which resulted in their
dismissal and the closure of television and radio stations. Across Greece there are
170 similar cases pending, so the courts in Iraklio will be setting a precedent.
In spite of the government closure though, ERT and ERA employees have continued
broadcasting online via their ertopen.com website. The trial proceedings will be
covered by ERA and ERT, while the presidents of Greek journalist unions will attend
the trial in support of the employees.
