I read the letter published by Quim Morales completely denying the comedian Carlota Palà (Charlie Pee) in Critical (who accused him of sexual and workplace abuse). Regarding workplace treatment, she says that at the beginning of the season she "realized" that another employee was being paid more for the same work.
