Sadly, Malta’s failure at the Eurovision Song Contest remains a reminder that whatever the government and its executives are doing in the public broadcaster remains mediocre at best, but the government has never shown any liking or interest to actually make an effort to win. The situation can also be compared to sports and other cultural sectors.
The problem is that no one is going to be do anything about it, and the government will keep renewing mediocrity in public broadcasting whilst using it as its own political party propaganda service. Addressing mediocrity and dysfunctional executives will offend many people and potentially lose Labour some votes.
Ultimately, the problem remains that Labour sees PBS as its own propaganda machine.
