Juan del Val attacks Jorge Javier Vázquez's harsh letter: "I love you, but you will know"

After weeks of speculation, David Broncano has become RTVE's star signing for its prime-time, being direct competition for El Hormiguero. A situation that Jorge Javier Vázquez referred to with a harsh letter in his weekly blog in Readings that, as expected, has not left anyone indifferent.

In a very harsh criticism against Atresmedia and the Pablo Motos program, which accuses the current Government of having orchestrated this controversial signing, the one from Badalona is clear: "Boy, you have been unbeatable for twenty years. Do you and your team for the signing of Broncano?", he says.

Some words that have not gone unnoticed among the program's collaborators, for whom Vázquez sends a message: "It seems to me that instead of putting on those antics you should applaud his arrival and wish him luck. He is a colleague, not a political commissar. "It seems that he is going to take away your bread and salt when you already have so much money that you are not going to spend it in a hundred thousand lives."

Precisely one of those who felt most affected was the writer Juan del Val, who just a few days ago stated precisely that "Moncloa wants to put an end to Pablo Motos", adding that Pedro Sánchez's government should deal with more important things than "negotiating a contract with conditions not seen until now to harm this program.

However, after the harsh criticism from Badalona, ​​Juan del Val wanted to send him an open letter from the set of El Hormiguero in response, assuring him that he is completely wrong in his criticism of Pablo Motos' program.

The writer begins by thanking Vázquez for having been so generous to promote his first novel in Sálvame, but soon goes on to harshly criticize his words for denying the interference of politics in the world of television, especially in Pablo's program. Motorcycles.

"Not only do I believe that there are movements in Moncloa to harm El Hormiguero, but I have evidence, as do all the media outlets that have published it and that are in the public domain. It's up to you with what you believe or with what you don't want to believe," he tells her.

"I feel sorry for this servility with the power of someone with as much talent as you. A talent that this world of supposed intellectual elite of the posturing left has never recognized in you. What a paradox.", laments the author of Bocabesada. "I have the feeling that you have a permanent determination to belong to a world that deep down despises you."

"What masochism, yours. You did theater in a brilliant way and they called you an intruder," recalls the collaborator. "You write with truth and wit, but they also despised your books, those cool leftists. It saddens me because I love you, but you will know," he continues.

"Yes Jorge, in Moncloa they don't like El Hormiguero, and in Moncloa they do everything possible to put an end to Pablo. I know it, they know it in Moncloa and you know it, even if you don't want to find out," he tells him, to finish his letter with: "A hug, friend."
