...po dvotedenskem evropskem košarkarskem prvenstvu na Poljskem, kjer so si naši športniki včeraj prigarali četrto mesto in s tem najboljšo uvrstitev v zgodovini slovenske košarkarske reprezentance, ni moč na Nizozemskem zaslediti niti enega samcatega zapisa o prvenstvu v medijih :-(
Nisem potreboval veliko razmišljanja, da sem se spravil napisati e-mail in ga poslati novičarskemu uredništvu nizozemske tiskovne agencije. Celotno besedilo v izvirniku sledi:

Letter of disappointment
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have been living in the Netherlands/Amsterdam for more than one year now and I must say I am very very disappointed these days because of blindness of all Dutch media, starting with your organisation that is source of most of the information for all the Dutch daily newspapers, magazines, news web portals, etc. Maybe nobody in your company noticed, but during the last two weeks there has been a FIBA European Basketball Championship 2009 (shortly called Eurobasket 2009) going on in Poland and I didn't manage to read A WORD about it in any of the Dutch media so far. Not even after the two closing matches yesterday evening bringing us new European Basketball champions Spain, followed by Serbia, Greece and Slovenia, which happens to be my home country.
I hope you and your colleagues will be smart enough and start caring also about the sports that other nations in the Netherlands like the most, not only football, honkball, hockey, cycling and ice-skating. Keep in mind that you're making a lot of money because of us 'foreign people' reading your news in Dutch language (!!!) and that it would be more or less at least an act-of-honour from your side to be pleased to serve us with the news we would like to read!
I pretty much expect at least a post-championship news article about the Eurobasket 2009 written by someone who knows something about basketball, even if this sport is far behind all the other sports when it comes to popularity of sports in the Netherlands. I still believe and know that you have many great basketball players and professionals dealing with this sport in any kind, so it shouldn't be hard writting an extended report of the championship accompanied with a professional's opinion and reflection of the whole tournament and its end results.
The main lead for every journalist should be to be objective all the time. So please try to be objective NOW and show that you care also about the sports you don't feel very comfortable with! In the end, the Netherlands is one of the most 'opened' countries in the world in many aspects. I can see no reason not to be the same in journalism!
Looking forward for your answer and a nice article in the newspapers tomorrow morning.
With kindest regards,
Uroš Malnaršič

Hmmm....kako bi povedal.
Lepo napisano in čeprav je navada, da ljudje v takšnih primerih rečemo: "Ma ja no, zabiti so, kej čmo zdej. In kaj naj se raztrgam zdaj, itak bo šlo v spam."...in podobno, ti izrekam pohvalo za trud in srb.
Da bi nas, ostale, takšno dejanje spomnilo, da se je včasih bolje zamisliti in reagirati kot pa zamahniti z roko in reči: "Ja no, upam, da bo naslednjič bolje."
