Yes, you need lots of cash to keep a political mobilisation going. MMG (Manager Media Group) has reported some six thousand millions baht in deficit for quite some time. Apart from the Manager Daily, none of its medias seem to be making money. Despite this fact, ASTV could afford to broadcast the gatherings of the yellow shirt PADs 24 hr non-stop between May and December of last year- that's over 6 months of extensive live broadcasting.

Tell me, how could a satellite TV heavily in debt afford such a thing? And if I'm correct (when I say this I know I am :), ASTV has never released their net income figure.

For some reason, investigative journalism doesn't exist in this nation. Sad but true.
