German broadcaster criticised for filling news slots with football

Original: Hi :) auch wenn ich ein einsamer rufer zu dem thema bin, werde ich das immer wenn ich es sehe hier wieder bringen, wann

A German-speaking commentator has renewed a complaint that public broadcaster TV news airtime is being 'wasted' on football coverage, saying football fans already have plenty of dedicated outlets and that scarce news slots should go to other topics. The poster admits being a lone voice on the issue but vows to keep raising it whenever the pattern appears. The critique touches on a recurring German debate about how public-service broadcasters should use their limited airtime.
