"We already held a referendum for the protection of public RTVS, and if necessary, we will do it again, and I am convinced that we can win. The director of the Institute 8th of March, Nika Kovač, also assessed that the result is extremely close and clearly indicates that any interference in RTVS is unacceptable." #RTVSlovenija #referendum #javnemediji (translated)

Andrej Poglajen wrote that Janez Markeš accused RTV Slovenija in 2005 of taking on the role of a central committee and described its operation as the merging of party strategy, regulated pop culture, and sports with the formation of society and its image abroad. Poglajen claimed that Markeš now praises RTV Slovenija, criticizes the Roman Catholic Church (RKC), although its clergy allegedly brought him basic necessities during times of scarcity, and celebrates things he once publicly rejected. He added that one of the priests was from his hometown of Idrija. He labeled Markeš as a journalist who changes opinions for money and wrote that Markeš referred to him as a "corrupt politician." According to Poglajen, this designation was proof that the younger generations of the Slovenian right are doing something right. He also stated that he would not want the praise of people who, in his opinion, betray their values for personal gain. #slovenskamediji #politika #javnozdravstvo (translated)

Vid Mlakar described the ratio of three votes in favor and one against in a close match as an exceptionally good result. He wrote that the government received the green light for the dismantling of funding for RTV Slovenia, and that the law on the parliamentary investigation is therefore less important in his opinion. He forecasted that critical information about the left will gradually come to the media and the public, adding that the left has "replaced the farmer with a fortress." #politika #Slovenija #RTVSLO (translated)

Liberatec noted that the parliamentary investigation represented the last propaganda attempt by the communists at RTV Slovenia. He claimed that they invested everything they had in an effort to address the mafia, while sinking themselves.

The SDS parliamentary group recorded that MP Alenka Jeraj wanted to point out Robert Golob's statement from 2023 about the "cleaning of Janšists" at RTV Slovenia. According to the group, when she began to explain the meaning of the statement for the discussion about the RTV contribution, a journalist interrupted her and prevented her from continuing. The group asked whether this was still about moderating the debate or already about silencing uncomfortable questions, and expressed concern that public RTV does not allow discussion about statements important for understanding its operations. #RTVSlovenija #RTVPrispevek #Soočenje #RTVSlovenija #Soočenje #Mediji (translated)

Žiga Turk accused RTV Slovenia of using the floods in the Savinja basin to campaign for a referendum, calling such conduct perverse. According to him, the voice for abolishing the subscription sent a depoliticized message that it is time for change. #referendum #politika #Savinjska (translated)

Aleš Štrancar has proposed the liquidation of RTV Slovenia.

Dr. Boštjan M. Zupančič stated that he believes the issue at hand is not personal grievances but rather the professional responsibility of the public media. He noted that Rosvita Pesek hosted a program in which RTV had recorded and prepared a statement from Jože Možina, but did not air it, and the viewers were not presented with the specific insults that are the subject of the dispute. Zupančič felt that RTV Slovenia should have published a correction or supplement, indicated the statements to which the lawsuit pertains, clarified that the label "Liar" was not part of the disputed text, and published or accurately summarized Možina's recorded statement. He called this the minimum professional correction. He added that criticism is legitimate if the public media omits essential facts and the response of the affected party, and that Možina is right at this point. #RTVSlovenija #mediji #profesionalnost (translated)

Jana Gržinič criticized the leadership of RTV Slovenia and wrote that the president of the RTV council, Forbic, spoke about fascists and their influence on the program at a meeting, and that Radio and TV Koper demanded explanations. She deemed Forbic unsuitable to lead the national broadcaster and stated that she would therefore vote for the abolition of the RTV fee. She also wrote that such behavior, in her opinion, would not happen on any national television in Europe, where the presidents of national television councils should not participate in political campaigns. She accused the leadership of being controlled by individuals from the left political spectrum, bringing the RTV almost to bankruptcy, and called for their resignation. #RTVSlovenija #Slovenija #politika (translated)

Sergij wrote that he hopes that Janez Janša and Giorgia Meloni will address this issue at today's meeting. He argued that the head of RTV Slovenia, whom he labeled a leftist NGO, should not equate Italians and Italy with fascism. He demanded that either this person or RTV Slovenia should leave, adding that in his opinion, no one in the EU has the right to spread such chauvinism. https://t.co/BEeY3tbJrv #RTVSlo #šovinizem #politika (translated)

Jože Možina wrote that RTV Slovenia and Odmevi, in his opinion, inadequately reported on that day in the trial. He praised the mention of the new attack by Svetlana Makarovič on the journalist, while also claiming that the media had omitted his arguments about delays. He added that he had been the target of attacks because of broadcasts on TVS, and accused Rosvita Pesek of attributing a mild insult to Makarovič that she did not utter, while ignoring more serious insults. He questioned on whose behalf the media reports in this way, and wrote that this reminded him of a saying about friends and enemies. #mediji #sojenje #novinarstvo (translated)
