They really say the quiet part outloud by letting
compete in a contest called "Eurovision"
Americans when they name their sportsball finals the "World championship".
We have this discussion every year It’s because of the tv network they’re on.

Yeah, but it's not like they've historically been a part of EBU. They are the newest member, only joining in 2017.
edit: only sorta true
They've been in it since the 50s, just that they relaunched their public broadcaster in 2017.
