Like when Ekot never dared to trust Radiosporten
To follow really big and important World Cup events, SVT viewers have to watch Aktuellt instead of World Cup Studio.
It’s weird and embarrassing for televised sports.
Within a week, it will have been twelve years since Qatar received the “prize” for hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and it wasn’t many months before reports of corruption, bribery, and heroism being bought reached us, first and foremost.
Over the years, FIFA’s violin has been exposed, the situation of guest workers, women, and homosexuals in Qatar has been described with all the required clarity, and the great and important press surrounding FIFA and the World Cup in Qatar has not been done by Swedish journalists. , but there was time to prepare for the shit that was to come.
It’s here now, but it still looks as if some people have been taken to bed.
A month ago, SVT sport sent out a press release and announced that soon “time for the big winter football party on SVT”.
Not everyone who has followed coverage of the World Cup and FIFA over the past 12 years shared this sentiment.
– People will really enjoy themselves at home on TV couches, Daniel Nannskoog said in the same press release.
“The World Cup is rubbish, but we’re here now” logical reasoning didn’t seem to be wrong, and SVT showed it during the early days of the World Cup.
Soon it became a completely ordinary toilet
After some mandatory features, some trouble-making and some initially believable reporting from broadcasters, the World Cup quickly became a completely normal for the sport of SVT.
The funniest and easiest thing to do is talk about sports, so let’s talk about sports, more sports.
Sports, sports and sports.
Wednesday’s several-hour broadcast of the restroom was completely absent from the world.
Let’s go back to SVT.
During the day, TV4 broadcast the early two matches and at least tried to blend its coverage of the match with a news article about FIFA’s decision to discontinue “One Love” ties.
The Danish Football Association called a press conference and booed Gianni Infantino.
The Germans continued with a nod of silence and German Interior Minister Nancy Weser sat in the stands in the FIFA-banned bandage.
TV4 has a news team on site in Qatar and they follow the development of events, there was tension and shock in the broadcast, Olof Lund went to the press conference and in the press studio Siyavush Fallahi and the experts Mikael Lustig, Vicki Blumi and Lotta Schelin tried to tell, think, explain, and to some extent They think about something about all the decisions made and not made.
Significantly better at TV4
It was done well, it must be said, because according to the TV4 gang, Iranian players were brave enough not to sing the national anthem because they risked being severely punished by their regime, but Harry Kane cannot be called a coward for not daring. To wear the armband because he was in danger of receiving a yellow card.
Sure, at any given moment there could be a ‘and so this Japan’ or a ‘against this Spain’ but at least they made a good attempt to lay out the scores, starting with the XI and guessing for a moment for something more relevant.
So far TV4 has had a significantly better news campaign in its broadcasts, they have a lot more people on site, their Middle East correspondent Therese Christianson is very involved from Qatar and in the studio at home they rely on experienced presenters like Anna Brolin after the disaster during the European Commission when They cut the broadcast from Parken when Christian Eriksen collapsed to show a rerun of “Halv eight hos mig” instead.
However, oddly enough, they often choose to use FIFA’s “Football United’s The World” propaganda in their broadcasts.
in passion.
Adores.
And in joy.
really?
When SVT took over, making no time for the day’s events, Spain and Costa Rica were next.
Sport, sport, sport, goals, goals, goals.
Send a lot of rest in Vinterstudion?
After 90 minutes of football, there was still a full hour to work with before 8:00 p.m. But it was exclusively about starting at 11, having a greater understanding of Canadian football, and finally also meeting a long-awaited Spanish victory – in Spanish.
When Pops asked a second time, Johan Kukuxlan sent “The latest news about Canada?” I almost thought he was psychotic.
Did SVT broadcast so much cozy Vinterstudio that it completely lost sense of the news?
Where is the courage and curiosity?
Was there no one in Qatar to talk to about events during the day?
What does the Swedish Football Association think about it?
We finally find out if we’ve seen Aktuellt, as guild boss Karl-Erik Nilsson has been there for a while and answered questions.
This kind of editorial refusal was practiced by Radio Sveriges in the 1970s when Ekot never dared trust Radiosport’s reporters but sent his own.
In parallel, in the World Cup studio, penalty and possession cases were ruminated and a pointless report was made about the “atmosphere on the Canadian bench.”
Who does SVT think they’re making this “big soccer party on SVT TV”, really?
Interesting if SVT continues to bring in Birro
Hearing Jonas Eriksson and Albin Ekdal talk about how they “met Pedro once” is so boring and at the moment so utterly pointless that you wish the bookshelf would come loose from its wall mounts and fall over.
After the late-night game, there was finally a few fifty minutes (a total of eight minutes in four hours) about FIFA, but it felt forced and no one seemed particularly interested.
An interview with a Moroccan defender drew attention.
We’ll see if they step up during the course of the tournament.
It will also be interesting if SVT continues to have Marcos Biro, who talks about football as a frequent guest on Morgonstudion, help him out.
On TV4, Birro is the face of a gambling company and states in the advertisement that “The World Cup is about emotions” and invites all viewers to enhance their World Cup experience by betting on matches.
To get rid of all the money, his family, his friends, yeah maybe his whole life – yeah, it’s fanmej vibes.
fight, svt.
