Complaint against the CLUB

At the beginning of this week, Martin Baltisser submitted a complaint to the SRG ombudsman. It is about the club after the victory in the deportation initiative. The title is "Deportation initiative between triumph and anger". The accusation: Two days after the SVP's victory, the only winner (SVP National Councillor) had to take on the role of the villain. He was caught in a tight spot between five losers. The moderator Röbi Koller allowed his superior power to unfold unhindered that evening.

The right-wing bourgeois Weltwoche switzerland rcs data wrote of a "monopoly medium with a bias", even analyzed the speeches and believed it clearly recognized that the concept was designed in such a way that the SVP National Councillor (as representative of the majority of the people) could be properly condemned. He had not even had the opportunity to address his triumph.

I also watched the program afterwards and actually have to raise some questions about the selection of the panel. If I take the title seriously, there should be a balance between representatives who triumph and those who were disappointed after the vote.

If five disappointed people can dominate the show, the issue of one-sidedness can be discussed. I am now interested in how the ombudsman assesses this problem.
