Board Called for Transparency in Electing Public TV Head

A group of media activists and journalists initiated a campaign to secure, as they put it, “transparent and fair” election of public broadcaster’s new general director.

Sixteen people are competing for the public TV’s top job, which became vacant after Levan Kubaneishvili resigned on July 20 for the reasons he declined to elaborate.

Public broadcaster’s board of trustees will make a shortlist of candidates based on contenders’ professional background and brief papers on their plans and vision by August 6 and then hold interviews with shortlisted candidates before naming a winner on August 10.>>>
