The anti-government protests in Bulgariа continue with two campaigns in front of headquarters of national television channels. At 6.30 pm as each Friday since the start of the protests, citizens gathered in front of the building of the Bulgarian National Television in the so-called "Civic Panorama", BNR reports. They usually wait for the guests of the political review show "Panorama" to leave the premises and throw eggs at the building.

Another demonstration has been organized tonight in front of Moscow Park Hotel in Sofia, convened in solidarity with Eurocom Television channel, which is subject to inspections by the Revenue Agency and the State Agency for National Security. Journalists in the media claim that the reason for the inspections are the positions that they have voiced on the air of their shows against the Prime Minister Boyko Borissov and the Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev.
