Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, former Secretary General of NATO, thinks that the Marco Borsato file will soon be moving forward. “There could just be an acceleration in the file now.”
The rumor that Marco Borsato would have behaved across borders against girls aged 13 and 15 was discussed extensively on public radio for the first time, namely in the program Spraakmakers on NPO Radio 1. had a discussion between NU.nl editor-in-chief Gert-Jaap Hoekman and Telegraaf journalist Wouter de Winther.

Another guest in the studio was Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, former Secretary General of NATO. He listened to it and expects things to pick up speed now.
Jaap: “Perhaps these seven minutes of the discussion between the two gentlemen here at the table will speed up the file. You never know now that a serious radio station like Radio 1 pays attention to it.”
flywheel effect
Presenter Ghislaine Plag: “Are you saying that we shouldn’t do that either?”
Jaap: “I think that is a relevant question or that you should pay attention to that in this program that we are currently on. That has a certain flywheel effect.”
He’s a little concerned. “You have to watch out for trial by media that, in this case, Marco Borsato is convicted before he can say anything.”
Journalism dilemma
Jaap: “You have to be careful about what you pay attention to. This is a serious radio station, NPO Radio 1, and then I can imagine that as a radio station you make the decision: should we pay attention to this?”
Ghislaine: “The reason was to do it because it is a journalistic dilemma.”
The rumors about Marco were discussed in the daily media section of her program.
