So why do they want to stop it? Financial reasons? or just stupidity?

Probably budget cuts, lack of government funding...

Sorry but their salaries are enormous...so they deserve to be shut down. The government also wants to shut down the "house of the children" a place that tries to keep kids from commiting suicide and getting raped by family members or abused in another way etc... (yes that happens a lot unfortunately)
I'd rather sign their petition than the one for Tahiti presse! Besides there are other websites supplying local news at lesser costs and that are more objective and less politically tainted in offering local news
