Former miss and now also sports reporter Alina Voronkova-Hurri came under criticism, after mixing up the names and titles of her interviewees during the live broadcast of C More’s SM league on September 23.
Both in social media and in other media, Voronkova’s mistake was described as, among other things, a “bottom quote” and an example of how not to do an interview.
You can watch the clip from the tweet above.
Voronkova published an article on her own Instagram and Facebook accounts, where she opens up about the feedback tolerance and emotions of a person doing public work.
– This is written by a person who works in public and also has feelings, Voronkova begins.
He continues by writing how those who do public work easily have to swallow unpleasant feedback. He feels that some of the feedback completely lacks a filter and it seems to be quite indicative of enjoying the failure of others.

– Ok, in one broadcast I made a mistake with the names and raised my hand to signal the mistake. The matter was discussed with those concerned and continued. Well, what could be tastier than turning a blind eye to all previous successes and making this particular case a part of the news, where the event in question was described as a “bottom quote”.
He adds that this was not the first time in the history of the world that someone gets the words mixed up in a live broadcast. Often, small gropings are brought up as fun and innocent side issues, but he felt it was special to talk about the bottom quotation.
– Could the author’s age, gender and status have an effect on this?
Voronkova elaborates that in all interviews it is of the utmost importance to address people by their correct names and titles. In this case, however, he says that he apologized, admitted his mistake and moved on.
– Why did I want to bring it up again? Because that’s what I’ve been thinking about for the last few days, and once again it’s amazing how many people are classified as “robots”. Feedback and free discussion is welcome, but is it necessary to inflate it in a negative tone into a bigger format?
He writes in his publication how it is good for the feedback giver to stop and think about what kind of failures are appropriate to laugh at. At worst, it can be interpreted as bullying.
– Stories come and go in the media and no one remembers them in a week. However, the human mind does not work the same way.
