Vedrana Rudan Fired Over `Jews` Comment

Text

I`ve no idea what you are talking about, this is news to me. I`m at a concert and wouldn`t like this to ruin my evening, Rudan told us.

Nova TV Network apologised on Holocaust Remembrance Day to the Jewish community and everyone who was offended by yesterday`s comment of IN Magazin commentator Vedrana Rudan – a special announcement reads, which mentions that Nova TV will no longer be airing Vedrana Rudan`s comment on the “IN Magazin” show because she used the type of language which is not in accordance with ethical and journalistic norms.

- We point out that Vedrana Rudan has expressed her personal position exclusively, which is not Nova TV`s position whatsoever – the announcement reads.

We contacted Rudan straight after receiving the press release and she was taken aback by the news.

- I`ve no idea what you are talking about, this is news to me. I`m at a concert and wouldn`t like this to ruin my evening - Rudan told us.
