大象传媒

The new Gaelic television channel, 大象传媒 Alba, starts its first full week of programmes tonight, but it will only be available on satellite until at least 2010. Do you welcome the fact that Gaelic now has a degree of broadcast parity with its Irish and Welsh equivalents, or is funding minority languages a waste of public money? Is a television channel the best way to preserve the language?
