Producer and presenter Ewout Genemans promises from now on to show a disclaimer on his programs if they show animal suffering. Genemans reports this in a message Instagram after a broadcast of his program Bureau Rotterdam led to a flood of reactions.
The episode, which aired on Tuesday evening, showed how a large dog bit a small dog to death. “Many people are shocked by this item,” Genemans said on Instagram. “We follow the police and see everything the officers experience. That includes things like this.”
Yet the maker promises that if animal suffering is shown again in his program, there will be a warning at the beginning of the program.” It is not clear whether this disclaimer will also appear in other RTL programs from now on.
Genemans calls on viewers who were touched by the broadcast to send a card to the owner of the dog to show support. He shares on his Instagram account the address of the Rotterdam police, who are still in contact with the man who lost his faithful four-legged friend.
