Agree that Martin isn't 100% regulating every decision, but as he's the public face it won't be surprising to see people blaming everything out on him, since people weren't familiar with the Reference Group nor who's actually in higher position than Martin.

If we have to be more accurate, we should put the whole Reference Group on the blame, as they are the ones steering the competition forward and their decisions matter for the contest' development.
Thank you for a nice reasoned response. That is what should be done absolutely. Put the blame on the bigger higher ups. Yes Martin is the face but he has not made each and every single decision.

Yet some seem to think that he has. I get everyone's coming at this from a view of their passion and love for the contest, but calling for a man to lose his job over decisions he hasn't made feels very dodgy territory to me.

Big 5 and Sweden press conference for this afternoon has been cancelled.
didn't that also happen last year though (or perhaps the year before?)? I remember this happening in the past as well
