Minister Hojs to POP TV journalist: You contributed to the media that this is the case today! And now you have wounded cops!

“The media is co-responsible for this. You supported them for months and “gave them bread.” The media contributed to making that happen today. Now you have a wounded police officer,” Minister Aleš Hojs accused POP TV journalist Katarina Matejčič after the most violent protest so far. 

 

After today’s violent protests, which did not lack dangerous pyrotechnics, granite cubes and other objects that hooligans threw at police officers and in which several people were injured, two of whom had to be transported to a clinical center in Ljubljana, the situation on the ground was also checked by the Minister of the Interior, Aleš Hojs.

When he walked past POP TV journalist Katarina Matejčič and she wanted a statement from him about what he was actually doing there, he replied, which she probably did not expect.

Media support for the protests ended in violence

Excited by all the riots in the center of Ljubljana and the wounded police officers, he told her that the media were co-responsible for the violent protests, as they had been intensively supporting them all the time, since the spring. “The media is co-responsible for this. You supported them for months and “gave them bread.” The media contributed to making that happen today. But now you have a wounded policeman,” said Minister Hojs. Matejčič wanted to justify her work by purchasing medical equipment at the beginning of the first wave of the epidemic, but Hojs replied: “What do police officers have to do with purchasing equipment?” The POP TV journalist tried to add that it was a government, and the dialogue ended.
