Bricamb, right now TeleMadrid's union employees have been on strike on and off for the last week, leaving merely a black screen on the channel and with a lower streaming banner and an explanation that the channel is "offline" because of the strike. I'm not sure what the workers want but probably the usual things, better salaries, better working conditions, etcetera.
This morning, instead of watching my favorite 9:30am - noon TeleMadrid news I'm watching TVE1 with an all politics debate and information. (yawn!) I like the TVE Spanish news but not so much their morning show. I like to see what's happening in Madrid, construction projects, the people, and all Madrid news on TV. It's funny to me that (normally!) immediately after the 9:30am - noon TeleMadrid news they show an episode of "WALKER: Texas Ranger" (starring Chuck Norris
karate kicking everyone into submission - when he's not using his pistol, that is).
Saludos, MadridMan
