ANNOUNCEMENTS

Mores, the unwanted behavior hotline for the Dutch cultural and creative sector, has received fifty reports of abuse in the media over the past four days. That number is nearly equal to the total number of reports the organization received during 2021. It affects both television and radio services and affects both public and commercial broadcasters.

At 308, the number of complaints received by the hotline this year is significantly higher than last year. Mores sees the number of reports increase during periods of media disclosures about undesirable behavior. This is how the BNNVARA program led BOOS abuse in January this year The voice of Holland came out and wrote the Volkskrant this month on a culture of fear The world goes on.

The announcement that the NPO a will conduct the search Transgressive behavior in public broadcasting also appears to have been a reason many people reported up, says Mores chairman Janke Dekker. “People now have the feeling that something can actually be done with their stories,” she told ANP news agency.

Concrete notifications

Mores will advise on how to set up the investigation, “to best represent and safeguard the interests of journalists”. Incidentally, Mores does not automatically share the reports with the commission that the NGO has asked to conduct the investigation. Together with the victims, the hotline looks for a possible next step.

Dekker says a staggering number of new reports are very specific. “People who come knocking can back up their stories with facts: Doctors reported exhaustion or heart palpitations. These are people who still have trouble sleeping or reliving certain memories due to experiences in the media world.”
