The article reports on protests by Lusa news agency workers in Lisbon and Porto, demanding that the Portuguese Regulatory Authority for Communication (ERC) address the recent revision of Lusa's statutes, which was carried out by the government. Union representatives argue that the restructuring and statutory changes conflict with European press freedom regulations and threaten the agency's independence. The protests included slogans and banners emphasizing the importance of autonomy and criticizing government influence. Workers plan to formally request ERC intervention and continue engaging with European institutions. The controversy centers on the company's reorganization, governance model, potential relocation to RTP facilities, and negotiations over working conditions, raising concerns about the future of Lusa and press freedom in Portugal.
