It’s over for RTL Tonight, so the experts involved are now busy looking around. However, there will not be room for everyone in the competition. Does Josine Droogendijk disappear from the TV?
Josine Droogendijk is one of the most criticized faces of RTL Tonight. Many people think that she spends too much time at the desk talking about royalties and are annoyed that she also talks about other topics. This way you can turn anyone into an expert, the criticism goes. The big question is: will we see her again?
‘Scares people away’
In any case, competitor Today Inside wants Albert Verlinde and Lale Gül back, but Ben van der Burg is no longer welcome. Erben Wennemars does not have to count on a transfer either. “Give me one reason why that chatterbox is always there? It’s always about himself or his son,” says Johan Derksen in VI.
Ahmed Aboutaleb then? “No, that’s nothing either. No, man. It was all nothing, Wilfred, come on,” said René van der Gijp.
And Josine Droogendijk is also not welcome at VI. “Please don’t. That only scares people away,” Johan shouts.
What does Josine say?
How does Josine herself view it? “You saw it coming. It’s a real shame, because I always did my best, learned a lot and really had fun. The viewing figures were difficult, but I never experienced it as difficult myself,” she says in the A.D.
Does she understand the criticism of her person? “It is complicated that a royalty journalist also says something about Iran, I read. But when I said something about Iran, it was only about the royal family and whether or not it could return, for example.”
“Shut my mouth!”
According to Josine, she knows her place very well. “Look, you are always asked in advance whether you have anything to do with the topics of that evening. If I don’t know anything about it, I ask questions or just keep my mouth shut. I am not, like Albert Verlinde or Lale Gül, an opinion maker.”
Albert states in that newspaper that a return to VI is not yet self-evident. He also sees RTL Boulevard as an option. “I don’t know if I would want that. I’m going to think carefully about what I really want.”
