LO Opposes to TV2's Sale to Non-Norwegians

It is a tragedy that the Norwegian private broadcasting company TV 2 has been acquired by Danish, says the leader of The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions (LO), Sture Arntzen.

The board of A-press has decided to sell its 50 percent stake in the TV 2 to Danish Egmont, which used to have 50 percent of the channel. Egmont will now own 100 percent of TV 2. The Danish media group will pay A-press 2.1 billion NOK for the purchase. Industry Minister Trond Giske was also strongly opposed to the sale and was skeptical that TV 2 shall be without Norwegian owners.
