Criticism of 'Y ahora Sonsoles' for asking for an audience "of Spanish nationality"

An announcement to attend the Antena 3 program Y Ahora Sonsoles as a public has generated great controversy in the networks because one of the conditions that is requested is to have "Spanish nationality".

The offer that is circulating is very specific, indicating the exact profile of people who are looking for and also including both the schedules to be met and the final reward. However, the networks have focused their attention on the detail of the nationality required of potential candidates.

Sources consulted by La Vanguardia assure that this type of advertisement asking for a certain type of public responds to the need to balance the one they already have. In this case, they needed the presence of a public of Spanish nationality and that is why this call was made, which is carried out, moreover, not from the program itself but from casting agencies.

A month ago, a call was made in which a young audience was requested due to the lack of this age group in the program. The same sources comment that the presence of all kinds of nationalities and ages among the public is easily verifiable live every afternoon of Y ahora, Sonsoles.

After several years working at Telecinco, Sonsoles Ónega decided to make the leap to Antena 3 to lead Y ahora, Sonsoles, a current affairs magazine that is broadcast Monday through Friday from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m.

Among the collaborators of the format are the journalists Olga Viza, Pilar Velasco, Luz Sánchez Mellado, Beatriz Miranda and Daniel Carande, the model Mar Flores, the businesswoman Carmen Lomana and the influencer Tamara Gorro.
