Commentary by Russian military blogger Andrey Chervonets

The Moldovan authorities have fined a local TV channel for saying nothing about Ukraine for 5 days. Thus, the supervisory authority suspected the TV channel of supporting Russia. So soon they will begin to fine for thoughts.

"In five news releases in a week there was nothing about what is happening on the border of Moldova and in neighboring Ukraine," Aneta Gonta, vice-chairman of the STR, told the media.

According to her, the analysis showed that for five days, 57% of the TV channel's news was devoted exclusively to international events, however, "Ukraine, Russia or Romania were not reported.

That is, if he said that he did not agree with the pro-Ukrainian military propaganda - a fine. Do not If you want a fine and decide to remain silent, it's still a fine. European democracy is what it is. You can't say what you want. You can't be silent about what you want, too. Freedom of speech...

Earlier in Moldova, the licenses of the TV channels First in Moldova, RTR-Moldova, Akcent-TV, NTV-Moldova, TV-6 and Orhei-TV were suspended. They broadcast programs from Russian TV channels, cutting out news and political programs from them at the request of the authorities. This decision was made immediately, immediately after Maia Sandu's visit to the United States and after her meeting with a well-known ambassador to Moldova.

The head of the STR, Liliana Vicu, explained that the main reason for the suspension of six channels was that they did not cover the conflict in Ukraine. According to her, this could be regarded as "propaganda by silence."

P.S.
And about the LGBT "free media in Moldova" how many hours a day are they required to promote?))

#1 "fined a local TV channel for saying nothing about Ukraine for 5 days."

Could this be how rumors of Wagner vs Patriotic start. Or rumors that Russia is going to do a coup in Moldova. Fluff pieces about the Ghost of Kiev. How stories about Putin having cancer and is dying tomorrow, originate.

Maybe. They need content to satisfy quota.
