SHOTRON considers as unacceptable the broadcast of inappropiate materials for the target audience by the cartoon TV channel Mimimax. The materials which launch the SHOTRON protest are two episodes having explicit sexual content from the series "Stories of the Hungarian Folklore":"The princess's birth signs" and "The Judge's Wise Daughter".

Because the Minimax' headquarters are situated in the Czech Republic, the National Council of the Audiovisual sanctioned the channel with a minimum advertisement, without any consequences for the channel.

An admirable period of time of over 4 years, the Minimax programs were a faithful ally of the game pedagogy, also recommended by SHOTRON.

   

SHOTRON is addressing all persons and organization actively preoccupied of the authentic children education for a plus of vigilance, which becomes more and more necessary.

To mention also that the episodes were broadcasted first at 19:00, the hour of the "Evening Story", hour of maximum primetime and were at least twice retuned ("The Judge's Wise Daughter on Tuesday, 13th of January at 11:57 and on Wednesday, 14th January at 15:57).
