David Cantero's emotional words to Ana Blanco for her retirement: "Simple, humble and friendly"

David Cantero is one of the most veteran presenters of Informativos Telecinco. The veteran communicator has been part of the network's news team since 2010, when he took charge of the midday edition. Since 2024, he has served as co-host of the weekend edition, and this Saturday, he dedicated a moment of the broadcast to say goodbye to Ana Blanco, since the journalist was making her last broadcast of Informe Semanal before her retirement. .

The emotional words have not gone unnoticed by the news audience. Cantero sent "a kiss" to his former partner on TVE's Newscasts. For the journalist, Blanco has been "an extraordinary professional, effective, serene, simple, humble and intelligent, prudent, educated and friendly." She has also expressed it through a publication on social networks, in which she has sent him a nice message.

It is worth remembering that Cantero's arrival at La 1 occurred in August 2004, when he covered the vacations of Ana Blanco on Telediario 1st edition, from Monday to Friday. "Ana Blanco is retiring, it's hard to imagine, she says goodbye tonight after more than 30 years of impeccable career, in what will be her last program, a last weekly Report... We work hand in hand in that legendary space and also in the News News of TVE," he began by saying on Instagram.

"We lived a fantastic time together for many reasons, having her as a partner was one of them. Ana was and is an extraordinary professional, effective, serene, simple, humble and intelligent, prudent, educated and friendly, all those qualities that each time There is a greater shortage of information. The fact that Ana retires does close a definitive back cover, a great stage in the history of television," he continued.

"With her around you always had a feeling of home, whether in the living room as a spectator or by her side in the newsroom or in the A1 studio in Torrespaña as a news partner. It is a privilege to be able to say that I worked and learned at your side... "A huge hug, Ana!" he continued, ending the writing with a famous quote from Pablo Neruda. "'We, those of then, are no longer the same...' and the TV, I won't even tell you!", she ended up saying.

Spanish Radio Television announced the retirement of Ana Blanco last Thursday, and did so through a statement in which she highlighted the "rigor and professionalism as the main hallmarks" of the presenter. Without a doubt, one of the most relevant faces in the world of journalism and television in Spain is saying goodbye to the small screen.
