Albanian TV station Zjarr caused a stir by featuring braless news anchors, igniting debates over innovation and objectification. The move aimed to boost ratings and symbolize transparency, drawing global attention but also criticism for exploiting women.
Anchors like Enki Bracaj gained fame for their bold style but faced backlash. Enki left after taking a Playboy gig, and Greta Hoxhaj took over, embracing the format and gaining popularity despite the controversy.
Critics called the tactic sexist, accusing Zjarr of exploiting women for attention. While some praised the boldness, journalist groups condemned the approach, highlighting deeper media issues.
Zjarr’s decision remains divisive, sparking debates about media responsibility and gender portrayal. Supporters called it daring, while detractors saw it as reducing women to objects for viewership.
