  • On November 2003, NCRTV fined one of the TV networks in Greece, Mega, with 100,000 Euros,[2] partly for having aired a kiss between two male characters of the popular TV show 'Klise ta Matia' (Greek: Κλείσε τα Μάτια). In December 2006, Greece's Council of State, the country's Supreme administrative court, annulled this decision though, ruling that NCRTV's fine was unconstitutional.[citation needed]
