Ondřej Suchý: portrayal of a journalist
Hedbávný, Marek ; Malý, Radek (advisor) ; Novotný, David Jan (referee)
This diploma thesis summarises the life and work of Ondřej Suchý with an emphasis on his journalistic activities in the press, radio and television. One of Suchý's projects in the Czechoslovakian TV was being a TV presenter in Kavárnička dříve narozených (1985-1995). He worked intermittently in the Czech radio from 1962 to 2018, presenting programmes such as Padesátník (1992-2008) or Nostalgické muzeum zábavy (1997-2008). As for the printed media, his name is mainly connected with a children's magazine Sedmička (1968-1971) and with an insert of Svobodné Slovo, Kvítko. This thesis also marginally covers Suchý's artistic work: he used to make a living as a caricaturist (he was known for his cartoon jokes about mice) or as a music lyric writer (he co-operated with Karel Černoch, Hana Hegerová or Dagmar Patrasová). He has also published over 50 books, mainly nonfiction; he focuses on biographies of famous actors, actresses, comedians and singers from the 1930s to 1960s. Further chapters cover his personal and professional relationship with his older brother Jiří, a critical assessment of his work by means of periodic reviews and an analysis of Suchý's journalistic methods. There is also an attachement which includes a thematic photo gallery.
