Commercial channel TV2 has been forced to go blank for half a day from Thursday noon because it violated media regulations protecting minors back in 2009. ORTT, Hungary’s media authority at the time, decided to impose the sanction in July 2009 because a chat show entitled Joshi Bharat had been shown by the channel with the incorrect on-screen rating symbol and at a time-slot that contravened the 1996 law on radio and television broadcasts.
