Humberto Tan moet vanaf volgend jaar stoppen met het radioprogramma Humberto op NPO Radio 1. AVROTROS betreurt het besluit. Dat heeft een woordvoerder van de omroep laten weten na berichtgeving van het AD.
“Humberto Tan and his team know how to strike the right tone on Friday afternoons by offering depth to current affairs in an accessible way,” according to AVROTROS.
The broadcasting company calls the program distinctive within the total offering in terms of subject choice, tone and approach. “He reached a broad, diverse audience through radio and online. We are extremely grateful to Humberto and his team for the past years.”
The 59-year-old presenter also reacted to RTL Boulevard. “The news sucks. The stupid thing is, AVROTROS wants it to continue. But the NPO has made a different choice,” says Tan. “The numbers are good, we score better than during the week at the same time. Can I understand it somewhere? No!”
