'I Disgust at Ongehoord Nederland,' Right-Wing Parties Also Turn Against the Broadcaster
Minister Rianne Letschert (D66) revoked the broadcasting license of Ongehoord Nederland (ON) citing accumulated procedural violations and lack of cooperation with other broadcasters, though critics note the timing coincides with controversy over a broadcast praising Adolf Hitler. While Forum voor Democratie continues to support ON, most right-wing opposition parties, including Ja21, BBB, PVV, and Groep Markuszower, criticized the broadcaster for misconduct. Opponents like Annabel Nanninga argue the minister’s delayed action allowed ON to play the victim, whereas Letschert maintains the decision was based on prior formal measures by the Media Authority and the NPO's loss of trust in collaboration.
