"Glanz & Gloria" accused of surreptitious advertising

 According to some viewers, "Glanz & Gloria", the people program on Swiss television, is alleged to have carried out surreptitious advertising. This was reported by TV Star magazine. The Swiss Sat.1 presenter Anna Maier visited her godchild Nirmala in India for the aid organization World Vision, accompanied by cameras. According to viewers, the aid organization received an extremely broad platform and priceless free advertising. SF ombudsman Achille Casanova agrees with the complainants. "Important and legitimate questions" remained unanswered for the audience. For example, it remained unclear exactly what the collaboration between SF and the aid organization had looked like and why Anna Maier was presented in different roles in the report. Once as a presenter, three times as an ambassador for Hilfswerk. A few weeks earlier, "Kassensturz" had reported extremely critically on the charity, but editorial director Dani Pünter rejected the accusations. The report was primarily focused on Anna Maier as a person.
