Krimi-Pause in Mitteldeutschland: The MDR stops new productions of "Tatort" and "Polizeiruf 110" for three years.

The contribution dispute has drastic consequences: the MDR sends the "Tatort" for three years into a forced break, as the station now lacks revenues in millions.
In the next three years, the MDR does not want to produce any more "tatort" and no more "police call". Among other things. Reason: Sparzwang because of the lack of a radio fee increase.
The implementation of the increase in the broadcasting contribution since the beginning of 2025, which had not yet been implemented, required a reduction in the budget from 2027, according to the MDR.
Due to the absence of an increase in the broadcasting fee, the MDR is pulling the red pencil. There are no new episodes of "Tatort" and "Polizeiruf 110" for the time being. Only what has already been agreed is filmed. The radio program "MDR Sputnik" is also affected.
Hammer at the MDR! Three years no new episodes of "Tatort" and "Polizeiruf 110" from Dresden and Magdeburg. Reason is a savings program.
