Boeddhistische Omroep Stichting
(abbr.
BOS
: English:
Buddhist Broadcasting Foundation
) was a special broadcaster on the
Netherlands Public Broadcasting
system, which was allowed to broadcast on radio and television because of their religious background. It was one of the "2.42 broadcasters" (named after the Article 2.42 of the
Mediawet
, the Dutch media law, which allowed faith-based broadcasters to get airtime on radio and TV without having to have any members). The broadcaster was known for broadcasting from a
Buddhist
perspective.
On 1 January 2016, the 2.42 broadcasters were extinct, including BOS, due to budget cuts at the
public broadcasting system
.

After that, Christian broadcaster
KRO-NCRV
, in cooperation with the Boeddhistische Unie Nederland (BUN),
[2]
became responsible for producing programming for the
Buddhist
community,
[3]
such as
De Boeddhistische Blik
.
