TV Markiza’s opinion on the current situation
“A decision on changes to the moderator positions of TV newspaper It is the culmination of a series of systematic organizational changes in news, which we have been implementing since the beginning of the year to create a multicanal digital news platform. The basic framework of these changes – without personnel details – was discussed in advance with the trade union organization chaired by Viktor Vincze.
We have been preparing the TN Live project in Markiza for several months and our colleagues have been informed about it at the beginning of the year. The management of the television is fully behind the director of the Center of Intelligence and Publication Michal Kratochvíl and supports his steps to successfully start the new TN LIVE news project.
This is crucial for the future of news. We want to occupy it with experienced moderators, so we also offered these positions to several of our colleagues from the television newspaper, who will get a wider space to reach a young audience. We do not understand why an offer is an unacceptable offer to work on a new TV project that has high potential.
We perceive this as an opportunity for our journalists and moderators to apply our experience in TN Live, while creating additional space for independent and objective journalism. We are counting on moderators for the future – and it is up to their free decision to accept the offer and continue to work for the Markiza Group.
