[The Chosun Ilbo, August 6 2008] Auditors Demand Firing of KBS President

The Board of Audit and Inspection has called on KBS directors to dismiss network president Jung Yun-joo over debts, monetary losses caused by his incompetence and unprincipled personnel management.

In a press release, the government watchdog said it conducted a special audit of KBS in June and July after a request from civic groups including the New Right Union in May. “We reached the conclusion based on Article 32 Clause 9 of the BAI Act, acknowledging that irregularities by Jung are evident,” it said.
