The New Hellenic Radio, Internet and Television (NERIT) has received a strong hit after the resignation of the Board’s Chairman Antonis Makridimitris and deputy CEO Rodolfos Moronis. Yesterday, Moronis posted the following comment on Twitter: “If you announce that you want to make something independent, objective and qualitative but you don’t mean it, then don’t assign it to someone who means it.” NERIT, the state-owned public broadcaster in Greece, is the successor to the defunct Greek Broadcasting Service (ERT). NERIT started broadcasting on May 4, 2014. On June 11, 2013, the Greek government announced its intention to close ERT with immediate effect and open the new organization, causing the strong reaction of the employees and a large part of Greek society.
