The appreciation for Werk Telegraaf journalist Saskia Belleman is justified, but Motivation Jury members also raises questions | Columns

It is not possible for our court reporter Saskia Belleman. In the week that she received the prestigious Machiavelli prize, a jury of Vakmedium Villamedia also proclaimed her a journalist of the year 2024. The jury members praised Saskia’s factual, independent and accessible way of reporting. The appreciation is very justified; We are very proud of our colleague. At the same time, that motivation also raises questions.
