Funding from viewers
Similar to several contemporary independent media, Moravac’s new project will rely on direct support from the audience. The platform works on a subscription basis.
The basic monthly package costs 229 Czech crowns, which is slightly more than 9 euros.

At that time, he thanked his former employer for the long-term opportunity and his supporters for their constant support.
“Thank you for your favor and Czech Television for the opportunity. I wish you a nice rest of Sunday and see you in better times,” Václav Moravec told the audience at the time.
