Rob Goossens goes through the fire for the niece of Albert Verlinde. He is furious with Victor Vlam because of the very stubborn rumors about RTL Boulevard. “This is a bit painful!”, He brands.
RTL Boulevard face Rob Goossens was once what Victor Vlam is now: a fearless media echo who has a lot of interests in the media world. Victor now flirts with the fixed-up at today inside and that yields a field of tension anyway, but Rob is nowadays just documentary RTL furniture.
Marionet Rob
Rob is unable to express criticism of his own ranks, it turned out when he was silenced after a critical remark about Linda de Mol. Not only did he get a slap on the fingers of the niece of Albert Verlinde who is in charge there, his entire comments were also cut out of the broadcast afterwards. As if he never said it.
Something like that is of course just called censorship, Wilfred Genee presented him later on the radio, but Rob refused to go along with that. He also refused to confirm that Jorien van der Plas, Alberts Nichtje, who committed censorship blunder. “Is that because you think with yourself: Ho, wait a while, otherwise I have no income at all anymore?” The VI-star asked him.
Good times
That is of course just the reason. When asked why Rob is silent, he replied: “Eh, good question. Yes, then I will talk about people who have been for me in good and bad times and what I would say about this … It might also be a huge politician now,” he then said in an extremely uncomfortable radio interview.
“This is something where people who are close to me touches in such a way that it feels more like private than as business. You now mention one specific name that I am not going into.”
Wilfed’s conclusion at the time? “That mortgage was nevertheless decisive in the end.”
Unreliable
In other words: Rob is an unreliable source when it comes to RTL Boulevard. Someone who is only able to express criticism that fits in the street of RTL and nowadays mainly on that desk to chat about the ditjes and datjes from B&B full of love. And now that the show section is under fire, we see Rob exploding very fanatically.
RTL Boulevard is discredited due to very high work pressure on the editors (confirmed) and DWDD-like ‘morbid’ situations in the workplace (unconfirmed). It is in line with the extreme horrorstress on the RTL news editorial team (confirmed), ambulances that push out (not denied) and Gijs Rademaker who was stressed at home (confirmed).
RTL denies
The Boulevard rumors come from Juice Channel, which clearly has a source with the show section, because the reporting was so sensitive to the program that they immediately depicted the channel on Instagram. Producer Fremantle now confirms the work stress Nu.nl (Just like RTL part of DPG), but denies DWDD states.
The producer says: “RTL Boulevard makes two TV broadcasts a day this summer and we see that this requires a lot from our employees. Despite the expansion of the team, the workload on the editors has increased. We try to catch this as well as possible and talk a lot about this.”
Soviet Union
Fremantle says he is happy with the ‘enormous effort and involvement that the makers show every day’. In other words: PR talks. And the Nujij repayer does not fall for that. “Why is it never that a company is shocking about such a message and starts working on it?” Says one Sonja. Another: “Tackle such employers immediately.”
Victor Vlam is also annoyed. The MediaCiticus writes on X: “I am so terribly annoyed by this attitude of RTL. Even the Soviet Union was more transparent. Everything is swept under the carpet. Problems are being silenced. Boulevard takes everyone the size. But when it comes to critical looking at yourself, hu. Knowing.”
DWDD-like
Victor states that the situation in the workplace is really as bad as Juice Channel describes. “I have spoken to several people who confirm the JuiceChannel stories about Boulevard. There is an atmosphere in which you should not report sick, because that is seen as anti -social. That is a recipe for burnouts. These are stories reminiscent of DWDD.”
And just then Rob Goossens comes around the corner. The patron of Jorien reacts furiously: “Not dick anyway, man!”, He shouts.
Victor: “You deny that there are problems?”
“You dick!”
Rob does not deny that. “I just say that you are going. But feel free to strengthen your bombastic texts with concrete examples.”
Victor: “There have been various concrete examples in the media. Are they not correct?”
Rob: “No names, no dates-I can genuinely not figure out which former employees this would be. What is concrete about that?”
Victor: “The situations that are described are quite concrete. That people do not immediately send traceable information to juice schannel, I understand. The bigger question is of course: isn’t it true what they say?”
Turn
Rob keeps talking around it. He says: “You try to turn it again, that’s not how it works. You also say you have spoken to people yourself. So it seems like an apple egg to show that it is true what you say.”
Victor: “I love to withdraw my ‘bombastic statements’ if the reporting turns out to be incorrect. But since you do not even want to say that it is not correct, I will not make up for that.
Rob: “Apparently you also bluffed with your sources. A bit painful this. If Wilfred asks about it tomorrow, you will really have to come up with something better.”
Polemic
Victor supports his statements. “You blow high from the tower. I did not blindly go into the reporting by immersing myself in it. I spoke to two people but or the record. That is actually the only way to get information separately. Based on that, I have faith in the story.”
Rob finally: “Says those who come up with the Soviet Union and DWDD is coming up omatic You are doing polemics, with truth finding this really has nothing to do with it.”
Victor is a guest tonight in today Inside, where it will undoubtedly be about the situation that has arisen.
