Once again the state-owned Swedish television (SVT) has shown evidence of their clear bias and connection to the Left. In the fall of 2023, after Hamas attack on Israel, the artist Stina Wollter, best known for being the daughter of one of the biggest actors in Sweden, Sven Wollter, wrote a post on Instagram where she spread anti-Semitic claims and conspiracy theories. A post she later deleted.
Quote "Anyway, I don't know how it is with you, but don't you wonder how much needs to be revealed in order for the media to start writing a little more systematically about what is happening in Israel/Palestine.That Israel systematically took organs and skin from dead Palestinians, that they falsified "evidence", that they lied about "beheaded babies" and rape, that they killed their own at the festival from helicopters, that they were the ones who dug tunnels under the Alshifa hospital, that the violence the killing and annexation of homes and land escalated in the West Bank, that thousands of children are killed, that Gaza is razed to the ground beyond recognition, that places that should be protected under martial law are bombed, that Israel's regular death raids, torture and terror, occupation apartheid and control of the Palestinians are illegal we already know..." unquote.
That SVT chooses to give Stina Wollter her own TV series barely 11 months later shows very poor judgement. The criticism against SVT has been massive and their damage control extensive. Eva Beckman, program director at SVT, defends the choice of Stina Wollter in a news program and Martin Vardstedt, supply manager for culture at SVT, responds in an e-mail request from the news paper Expressen quote "We have made a program series with Stina Wollter because she has over 30 years of experience as an artist, has worked as a crochet teacher, done thousands of interviews on the radio and has a long-term commitment to issues concerning the body and our relationship to it" unquote.
SVT maintains that the TV series will be broadcast.
