The closure of RRVV implies the end of the provision of a public good of complex composition. A public television on the one hand involves the provision of information about the reality that surrounds us and that allows citizens to position and decide on various topics in greater technical capacity and higher quality of democracy. At the same time a public media permits the expression of diverse and plural voices outside their "market value" fulfilling the right to participate and freedom of expression of their citizenship. On the other hand a public media, if effective, structures and forms a framework of common values ​​that can strengthen the social cohesiveness of a community, by increasing the sense of identity and belonging. And in the case of minority languages ​​territories is clear that public media is a tool for widespread its use, normalize it and dignify it, so it becomes one of the most effective tools in the process of language standardization in multilingual territories. Finally, the public media have become also in tractor elements of the regional audiovisual sectors at a time in which all the cultural and creative sectors become strong candidates to star in the change in the production model and instrument of fight against the crisis.
