The overly bold fashion sense of female editors of Albanian television has caused a huge controversy.
In the impression of most people, the editors and presenters of national television stations always appear in neat clothes and have a dignified and elegant appearance. But recently, the female editors of Zjarr TV, a television station in Albania, dressed revealingly on television and caused a big controversy.
According to the British newspaper Daily Star, many female presenters of Zjarr TV wear very bold outfits when reporting. They wear vests of different colors along with some accessories, but underneath they wear nothing, not even bras.
At that time, several media outlets interviewed Smet Drishti, the boss of Zjarr TV. According to Smet Drishti, the fact that the female anchors wore nothing underneath was to demonstrate the station’s goal of reporting the most truthful news, without hiding the truth. It is known that in a country like Albania, where the government is often manipulated, this approach can be seen as a protest against the limitations of traditional media.
So do female news anchors do this voluntarily? Or are they forced to? From the interviews, it seems that they are basically doing it voluntarily despite criticism. One female news anchor, Greta Hochharj, shared:”I worked hard at a local TV station for five years but never got any attention. I have no regrets because this choice made me a star.”
Although the choices of these female newscasters were bold, they also changed the trajectory of their lives. They went from being unknown to being the center of national and even international attention. This change not only brought them fame but also brought them more career opportunities.
