TV5 is manipulating TAM Boxes

It has been reliably learnt that the TAM ratings of Tv5 are manipulated ones. They have caught hold of a few TAM meter houses in each city and are manipulating them for higher viewership nos.

Couple of channels have found this and have complained to TAM offices. TAM has initiated a strong investigation.
Last heard is that they are thinking of initiating action on the TV5 channel. This action could mean demonitoring of this channel for upto 2 years and also taking them to court which could have very serious repurcations including banning of their License by the Ministry and or legal prosecution.

Therefore the ratings of this channel are to viewed under the light of tampered reading putting a very serious doubt over their actual ratings. Wonder if anybody other than the TAM households are actually watching TV5 channel.


Keep tuned on for followup news on this..
