The Top 2000 à Go-Go continues with Matthijs van Nieuwkerk. A spokeswoman for NTR, the broadcaster where the program is broadcast, confirms this to ANP. “The Top 2000 is scheduled to broadcast again in December.”
The Top 2000 à Go-Go team “does not recognize” the behavior of Matthijs van Nieuwkerk as described in the article by de Volkskrant. “Our production team has enjoyed working with Matthijs in recent years and in a good relationship,” said the spokeswoman.
De Volkskrant spoke to more than fifty former employees of the talk show about “cross-border behavior” of Van Nieuwkerk, who was one of the best-paid presenters of the NPO for a long time. According to the employees, these were “extreme outbursts of anger and public humiliation”. Dozens of employees fell ill because of the working conditions.
