Swiss voters decisively rejected proposed changes to the fees that households in the country must pay to finance the public broadcast system. The proposition was shot down in a 38% to 62% referendum vote on Sunday. Brought forth largely by the right-wing Swiss People's Party (SVP) and the youth wing of the center-right Free Democratic Party (FDP), the proposition would have cut mandatory annual household usage fees for radio, television and internet from 335 to 200 Swiss francs (€370, $430).
