Menna Machreth, Cymdeithas yr Iaith Gymraeg's broadcasting spokesperson said:"This news, along with the BBC's decision to abandon part of its Welsh language online service, is very concerning. We are on the verge of losing something unique - the world's only TV channel in the Welsh language. That's why we're campaigning against the joint BBC-Government plan to make huge cuts to S4C. Thousands of people of people have already joined our campaign to save the channel - by attending rallies, meetings and writing letters. With more and more people making a fuss, the politicians will have to start listening."
