de definição o relatório da visita

play05:12

técnica realizada por uma equipe A

play05:14

Tribuna e constava o seguinte abre aspas

play05:16

as câmeras do estúdio estão

play05:18

desatualizadas tecnologicamente operando

play05:21

em formato SD quando correto seria HD o

play05:24

que resulta num sinal com perda de

play05:26

definição considerada visível no ar os

play05:29

equipamentos que já se encontram fora de

play05:31

linha pelos fabricantes câmeras de

play05:34

imagens externas seriam diversão

play05:36

semi-profissional operando com

play05:38

microfones com fio na conclusão do tal

play05:40

relatório o SBT ressalva que a Tribuna

play05:42

cárie de investimentos técnicos também

play05:45

disseram a ausência do interesse do SBT

play05:48

de renovar o contrato de afiliação se

play05:51

deve única exclusivamente por culpa da

play05:53

própria TV Tribuna que deixou de

play05:55

apresentar padrão adequado de qualidade

play05:57

tornando-se ao longo dos anos obsoleta

play06:00

com inegáveis reflexos para os

play06:02

telespectadores do SBT em Vitória

play06:04

Espírito Santo fecha aspas que por

play06:06

estarem sendo obrigados a manter um

play06:08

contrato com a Tribuna podem ter um

play06:10

baita prejuízo de milhões de reais até

play06:13

porque a rede 5 como a gente falou até

play06:15

fez vários investimentos para integrar

play06:17

emissora E aí como é que fica o SBT diz

play06:20

em defesa no processo abre aspas a nova

play06:22

afiliada sabendo que precisaria atender

play06:24

aos padrões de qualidade exigidos pela

play06:26

TV SBT realizou diversos e vultuosos

play06:29

investimentos como por exemplo a compra

play06:32

de satélites e antenas parabólicas

play06:34

recuperação de transmissores compra de

play06:36

câmeras com tecnologia de ponta e ainda

play06:38

realizou a reforma no prédio fecha aspas

play06:41

que caso hein aí no dia 14 de julho

play06:44

houve uma reviravolta nessa história em

play06:46

Segunda instância o Tribunal de Justiça

play06:48

de Pernambuco determinou a suspensão

play06:51

imediata do contrato entre a Tribuna e o

play06:53

SBT o desembargador entendeu que a

play06:56

obrigação de continuidade do vínculo

play06:57

entre as emissoras

play06:59

ingerência indevida do Poder Judiciário

play07:02

isso significava que a Tribuna ia ter

play07:04

que cai fora e que o SBT tinha vencido A

play07:07

Batalha pelo menos até aquele momento

play07:08

porém não não foi isso que aconteceu tão

play07:11

vendo como essa história cheia de ver a

play07:13

voltas uma semana depois no dia 21 de

play07:16

julho o mesmo Desembargador responsável

play07:19

pela decisão voltou atrás e determinou

play07:21

com o SBT seguisse sim o contrato

play07:24

anulando a suspensão do dia 14 olha só

play07:27

que bagunça Mas calma que tem uma um

play07:31

motivo muito bom para isso A Tribuna

play07:32

havia legado que teria de demitir 300

play07:36

funcionários então ele reconsiderou por

play07:38

conta disso até eu ia reconsiderar até o

play07:41

momento a TV Tribuna continua assim

play07:43
