Television friendly
Does the highlighted sentence mean "after that controversial interview in 1997, TV programs try to talk to her more and show her more in their programs"?
Context:
Since gaining success and notoriety through his subject matter and Saatchi’s patronage, Damien Hirst has often led a publicly dissolute lifestyle of drink and drugs. Emin also carried a reputation for drunkenness in the late 1990s at a time when she was receiving sponsorship from Beck’s Beers and in receipt of free gin from Bombay Sapphire for appearing in their advertisements. Of the two, Emin is more television friendly, especially after having made a rather glorious spectacle of herself on the Channel 4 post-Turner Prize discussion in 1997. She has subsequently been interviewed by Melvin Bragg and appeared on Have I Got News For You
