There is discussion about Ingrid Coenradie’s position as a regular table guest of Today Inside. According to Job Knoester, the talk show is too much of an extension of JA21. “Switch to Talpa?”
Wilfred Genee and his colleagues have been looking for suitable women who can take a seat as regular guests in Today Inside, but they experience that many ladies find it all too scary. Recently, Ingrid Coenradie has been regularly at the talk show table and that is striking, because VI does little else with active politicians.
Job is critical
Awkward, VI prominent Job Knoester thinks it is. “I actually think Ingrid Coenradie is the best politician at talk show tables. A very nice guest, but if you regularly put her as the only politician at this table, then it will be a colorful table,” he says in Today Inside.
Johan Derksen disagrees with that. “Yes, but we already have the reputation of being a right-wing talk show? Are you going to deny that or something? Or show that we also invite left-wing people?”
Talpa transfer
Job thinks that VI really needs to reconsider this. “No, but I don’t think that as a program you should be an extension of one party.”
Johan: “No, no, but she is very nice at the table.”
Job: “She is very nice at the table, but then you might have to buy her away from the party as Talpa and then she can sit here every week.”
Johan: “I think she would be up for that.”
Throw out a fish
If Ingrid stops at JA21, it could work, according to Job. “Well, then you have to throw that fish out, but I wouldn’t want one politician at the same table all the time, because then you become an extension of it.”
René van der Gijp agrees: “Then you become colored. Then you become colored.”
Johan: “Yes, but I don’t mind being colored at all. They don’t have that problem at the public broadcaster either.”
Job decides: “No, but I don’t mind colored, but then you have to do it more broadly, I think.”
