Gabriel Rufián reacts to the cancellation of 'Sálvame' and praises Jorge Javier Vázquez

The faithful viewers of Sálvame will have to say goodbye to the format next June. El Mundo announced the news this Friday, and in the absence of official confirmation from Mediaset, it seems that the program has a little more than a month of broadcast left. After learning this news, the reactions of those affected are coming to light. First, they were Kiko Hernández and Kiko Matamoros, regular collaborators on the program. But the truth is that this imminent disappearance has reached other spheres, such as politics. One of the politicians who has reacted to the news has been Gabriel Rufián, the ERC spokesman in Congress.

As El Mundo was advancing, it will be on June 16 when the magazine broadcasts its last program. On June 19, a new stage would begin in the afternoons of the chain, which, according to the same medium, will be led by Ana Rosa Quintana, who will be present both in the mornings and in the afternoons. However, this format would arrive after the summer, and during the summer it would be the new program Así es la vida, by Sandra Barneda, which would fill the void of Sálvame.

This imminent cancellation has not gone down well with the collaborators of the program. The first to show her state of mind after the news was Kiko Hernández, who assured that this Friday was "a hard day." Kiko Matamoros was not slow to react either. "Thank you for the love of so many good people reviled for seeing us. I am sure that they have been the cause of a lot of happiness and a balm for many wounds. Long live, save me!" She wrote in a post on the networks.

But as we said, this news has reached other spheres, such as politics. First it was Pablo Iglesias who reacted to the cancellation. In a tweet, Iglesias mentioned the desire to maintain the independence of the media from him and to "break the block of media power" that exists in Spain. The former politician expressed his wish for Jorge Javier Vázquez to be part of Canal Red, a television channel run by the former Podemos politician. "Very soon on Canal Red 'Rojos y Maricones' presented by Jorge Javier. He has a bit of a high cache for us, so you can give us a hand," Iglesias tweeted.

But Pablo Iglesias has not been the only one who has reacted to this news. So has Gabriel Rufián. The ERC spokesman in the Congress of Deputies has praised the figure of Jorge Javier. The activist considers that his claims against fascism, racism and homophobia have been more useful than thousands of political campaigns, and that is why he wanted to launch a tweet as a reflection, which has not gone unnoticed.

"I have criticized Sálvame a lot, but I am going to say two things: that Jorge Javier Vázquez has done much more saying that fascism, racism and homophobia are slop than a thousand political campaigns and that for trash TV some gatherings and newscasts of distinguished journalists " , the Catalan politician expressed through his Twitter profile.

As we said in previous lines, the group chaired by Borja Prado thus continues its changes for the new season. Save me and all its variants, such as Deluxe, will say goodbye to the audience on June 16 forever, after 14 uninterrupted years. A hard setback for its loyal viewers and for all those who have been part of the Sálvame universe for so long.
