Aubauer and Karl Leave ORF Audience Council

Aubauer will also not be sent to the Foundation Council, which will hold its inaugural meeting next Tuesday.

Aubauer Confirmed Withdrawal

Only Aubauer has confirmed her withdrawal to the "Standard", while there was initially no statement from the ORF. According to the newspaper, the ORF Audience Council member Petra Stolba, who is associated with the ÖVP, could join the Foundation Council instead of Aubauer. It is still unclear who will take over the mandates in the Audience Council. For this, the federal government must now select and send representatives proposed for the areas of older people and science.

Even before its constitution, the Audience Council had lost two candidates who had to be replaced just a few weeks before the first meeting due to (past) political activities.
