After an e-mail from 2002 to the then ÖVP interior minister Ernst Strasser was made public in 2008 , in which Jelinek had expressed job wishes for senior ORF positions such as the editor-in-chief ("If the editor-in-chief is not already assigned, [ was this position] of course the politically most interesting position ”), he had to vacate the post of report chief. He was then supposed to head the TV science and documentary department , but was rejected in a vote by the editors' meeting.
