The last Sunday of every month, La 1 broadcasts RTVE Responds, the program directed and presented by the public broadcaster's viewer advocate, Rosa Maria Molló. She is one of the network's most iconic and historic journalists, both for her time at the Sant Cugat headquarters, with programs such as Giravolt, as well as a prestigious career in news services, taking on correspondent positions in New York, Beijing and the Middle East.
RTVE Responds It delves into the operating mechanisms of public television, providing information about various departments and programs and clarifying how certain media challenges are addressed. The program also echoes viewers' complaints and suggestions and some circumstances that have generated controversy in order to fulfill its duty of transparency. Considering that The TV family premiered on April 28th, we were waiting to see how the viewer's ombudsman would echo the media debacle a month later. public.
The surprise came when last Sunday's broadcast of RTVE Responds, the one from the month of May, did not say a word The TV family and these rampoines of the Save me that are dying in the afternoon. The focus was placed on the importance of offering programming that is sensitive to the planet, and viewers' complaints were also selected in line with that argument.
It was very disappointing to see how one of the latest scandals on public television, one of the most absurd and incomprehensible decisions by its directors, and one of the most painful pieces of content since the time of José Luis Moreno, has not received the attention of the viewer's ombudsman or RTVE RespondsIt's hard to believe that no complaints of this kind have reached the program's inbox. It would have been very interesting to hear the voices of the professionals who publicly complained about this sad television drift and the audience's reactions. But, above all, it's time to hear the network's official version legitimizing this nonsense after a resounding television failure, in every sense. An interview between the viewer's ombudsman and the program's directors on this issue is urgently needed. We must be able to see who has the nerve to defend the unworthy trashy television being offered by public television, because no one is taking responsibility before the audience. A deathly silence on the part of the station's management is becoming normalized. Perhaps no one has the courage to come forward. But the audience's ombudsman can't pretend this scandal doesn't exist, and if no one wants to publicly justify themselves, they should also denounce it.
