Tom Bartels, whose career began in the mid-1990s, comments on major sporting events on ARD. Unforgotten are his historic words from the 2014 World Cup final in Brazil, when Bartels yelled into the microphone at Mario Götze’s winning goal: “Do it! make him! He makes it! Mario Götzeeeeeeee!” Afterwards there was a lot of praise for the 57-year-old, but he also had to take a lot of criticism. One wrong word in front of an audience of millions is enough.
WORLD: Mr. Bartels, the ex-national player and today’s TV expert Sandro Wagner has just fueled the debate about “Cancle Culture”. He said: “I can see that a lot of people are now shaking their heads and asking themselves: aren’t we allowed to say anything more?” How do you feel about it?
