History
[edit]In 1972, the editor Sofia Şincan received the task of drawing up the necessary personnel, equipment, spaces and money for a new newsroom, as a new program of the Romanian Radio Broadcasting on ultra-short waves, "Program 3", dedicated to the youth, was to be established. Its aim was to distance the youth from "Radio Free Europe" by offering similar content, but also the subtle administration of ideological treatment.[3] Initially, a scheme of around 80 people had been approved, but shortly afterwards Radiodifuzione was forced to drastically reduce its staff, firing 500 employees. In these conditions, Sofia Şincan had to deal with the existing staff at the "Tineret-Copii" editorial office and with some directors chosen from among those who were to be fired. To the request for a budget of 1,500,000 lei, the president of Radiotelevision, Bujor Sion, replied: "it's done, you have them, but make shows so good, daring, that if you put them on Program 1, I'll put you in prison!".[4]
