TV authority Tina Nijkamp came with striking news in mid-March: the wine program of Ilja Gort disappears from the tube after thirteen years. And according to her, that is a good thing, because she believes that promoting wine is not at all a task of the public broadcaster. How ilja responded? If stabbed by a wasp. “”This is fake news!“”

Ilja is pissed off

Ilja really attacked Tina – according to him all was wrong. And he also sent all his wild fans at her. Well, we are now three months further and now Ilja is still falling through the basket. He confirms today in De Telegraaf that his program from the tube.

It is really good, according to De Wijnboer. “The program is popular, cheap to make and is widely appreciated. Why would you delete that as a public broadcaster? That is against all logic?”

Far -fetched

Now it is Gort across the border that goes off the tube, it was already Gorts Wijnkwartier, because it would be ‘too positive about alcohol’. “I thought that was far -fetched then. Yes, wine contains alcohol, but it was also informative and was about enjoying in moderation, about tradition and culture.”

With Gort across the border, he hoped to meet that criticism. “We are barely talking about wine. Only at the end do we drink a glass.”

Fake news

Ilja says he is a victim of the cuts. “Cut back fine, but look at what you cut back. Gort across the border is cost -efficient, we work with a small young crew, run quickly and get tower -high valuation figures. Then I wonder: what are they actually doing in Hilversum?”

Anyway: Tina Nijkamp is now right. She says: “By Ilja Gort and Avrotros first being put away as a liar and now as AVROTROS also lead ‘the cuts’ as an argument. Gaap. Who is spreading fake news here? 🤔”
