==Alter Channel workers' occupation (30 November 2011 β 10 February 2012)== {{Infobox civil conflict | title = Alter Channel workers' occupation | place = Greece | date = 30 November 2011 β 11 October 2013 | goals = Salary payment | causes = Unpaid for over a year <br> Channel debt crisis | methods = Occupation | result = Management victory <br> End of the channel broadcast | side1 = Unpaid Alter employees | side2 = Station management | leadfigures1 = George Filippakis | leadfigures2 = George Kouris }} On November 11, 2011, unpaid Alter employees occupied the station, broadcasting their demands over the transmission. Alter employees produced and transmitted their own program from January 1 until February 10, 2012, at which point all transmissions ceased. The programme featured interviews with unemployed Greeks, unpaid workers, striking workers of the Greek steel industry, unpaid employees of newspaper [[Eleftherotypia]], economist Dimitris Kazakis (who referred to the imposition of new measures by the government Papademos), the chairman of power company union GENOP, Nikos Fotopoulos, and former broadcast journalist John Kanelakis. Presenters of the show were George Filippakis and Akrivi Kirikos. Also broadcast at this time were the documentaries [[Debtocracy]], and W4 Crisis (Women of the crisis), which referred to the economic crisis and the Greek debt. The solidarity concert at the indoor basketball court of Peristeri was also broadcast on Monday, January 30, 2012. In April 2012, the major shareholder of ALTER George Kouris started negotiations with Israeli investors, who wanted to financially support the channel.
