About the media
The Icelandic television station Hringbraut (and the station's web) first aired in February 2015. Mr. Sigmundur Ernir Rúnarsson, Editor-in-chief of Hringbraut said that there was a space available on the Icelandic television market, since the station would be being different from what was before in the market. "We believe there is room for a broad and informative talk show Channel, backed up by a diverse website, open to all Iceland's potential, for the benefit of homes and businesses, with experienced staff at the helm."[1]
