The program host Farah Abadi kicked the journalist out of the studio after Brandão Jönsson, who when participating in a panel, tipped a listener to let her husband travel to Copenhagen to buy sex and thereby become better in bed.

Several complainants think that Sveriges Radio did wrong.

"One can hardly be considered an impartial media when one throws out disagreeing guests", writes one of the 13 who reported Sveriges Radio.

Henrik Brandão Jönsson, who is a long-time Brazil correspondent for Dagens Nyheter, apologized after Sunday's broadcast.

"I tried to contribute to the program's best and create dynamics, but it went completely wrong. I dissociate myself from all forms of buying sex", he wrote on X.

Dagens Nyheter's foreign editor Pia Skagermark tells TT that she had a meeting with Henrik Brandão Jönsson, where he expressed what he already has written in social media.

He is deeply regretful and thinks it's unfortunate what he said on P4. It was a good meeting, where we talked about what has happened.

Will this affect his work for DN?

No, he is a freelance employee and correspondent, and the cooperation will continue.

Anyone has the right to report programs to the Review Board for Radio and TV at the Media Authority. The board handles several thousand complaints per year and has not yet decided whether the case will be taken up.
