The Czech National Council for Radio and Television Broadcasting (RRTV) has awarded four licences to AMC Networks Central Europe.
Three, for Sundance TV PE (Pan-European), Sundance TV FR (France) and AMC Channel RU (Russia), are satellite licences and the fourth, for the new channel Sport4 Chechia and Slovakia, is for special distribution systems.
Separately, RRTV has fined the Czech national commercial broadcaster TV Nova a total of CZK800,000 (€30,687) for two breaches of Act No 23 governing product placement. Both were committed in late 2016.
