Eurovision DVD censors protest segment
Following the release of the official Eurovision 2019 DVD last month, it was confirmed that Hatari’s message of support to the people of Palestine would not be present on the commercial release.
The censoring of Hatari comes as no surprise as EBU rules clearly forbid polticial statements. This includes several flags as they carry a political message.
