Date: 13/06/2013

A fairly large and united general strike rally took to the streets of downtown Thessaloniki on 13 June, to protest the "sudden death" mandated on the state TV ERT -and all it's broadcasting assets, such as the Thessaloniki subsidiary ERT3- by the conservative government on 11 June. GV author and editor Asteris Masouras interviews local citizen journalists on the reasons and the background of the countrywide protests against the closure, and the austerity measures disrupting social cohesion in Greece.
