EXCLUSIVE: Montenegro to withdraw from Eurovision 2020!

According to our exclusive information, RTCG , the Montenegro national broadcaster has decided to withdraw from the 2020 Eurovision Song Contest.
The main reason is financial, since participation in the contest comes with a high ticket that not all broadcasters are able to pay. 




Reducing the cost for the participating broadcasters will actually be one of the main challenges of the new executive supervisor, since Montenegro is the second country after Hungary that withdraws for the same reason.

EXCLUSIVE: The plan to postpone Eurovision for a month!

Image
The Eurovision Song Contest was created after World War II in order to unite the nations of Europe that have been divided by a catastrophic war. 65 years later  the continent  is again being tested, this time by a pandemic that forces people to stay at home and countries to close their borders. The government of the Netherlands and the European Broadcasting Union officers, believe that they should do everything in their power for this year’s event to take place, uniting the people of the continent through music, exactly as it did 65 years ago.   For them the reason is not financial,   but   mainly symbolic.  There are several plans on the table but according to our exclusive information, the one that has for now the most chances is the one that says the contest will be postponed for 3 weeks to a month with the  final taking place either on  the 6 th  or the 13 th   of June, with the 20 th   not   being   exclud...

Sietse Bakker: How the favourite to become the new executive supervisor became an outsider!

Image
When back in September it was announced that Jon Ola Sand steps down from his position as the executive supervisor of the Eurovision Song Contest almost everyone assumed that Sietse Bakker would be the person to replace him. After all, the strong relationship between the two men had never been kept secret. Back in 2013, when Sietse Bakker had to step down from his position as the executive supervisor of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest, due to his poor performance in this role, it was Jon Ola Sand that rescued him by offering him the position of Event Supervisor. In 2015 Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet revealed that a high profile executive of Bakker’s company, Wow! Works, orchestrated a smear campaign against the Swedish contestant Mäns Zemerlöw. The Eurovision world was shocked by the scandal, which hit the headlines in several media outlets around the world. Wow! Works had after all an annual...

EXCLUSIVE: The "September scenario”

Image
For one more time Hod45, brings you exclusively news regarding the scenarios that the European Broadcasting Union and the Dutch government are discussing.   As we have written in a previous article, postponing the event to June is the most likely scenario, but September is not out of the question. The main problem for the "September scenario” was that the winning broadcaster would not have enough time to organise next years event. The solution that is now on the table, is for one of the BIG 5 countries, most likely Germany, to be prepared to host the 2021 edition, in case the winning broadcaster claims they don't have enough time to organise the event in 8 months from September 2020. Since several fake news are surrounding the net it needs to be clear that despite the symbolic reasons that EBU doesn’t want to cancel this years event, legally that would be impossible since contracts have been signed not only with the broadcasters, the sponsors, the construction compani...
