This past Wednesday, the Así es la vida program experienced a most surreal moment while reporting the last minute on the health of the mother of Luis Rubiales, who was rushed to the hospital. The reporter José Domingo Bueno, sent to the town of Motril (Granada), wanted to know the opinion of his neighbors about what was happening there when a woman harassed him live.
"I can do whatever I want to do to you, I'm a woman, I can take you by the balls if I want to, look!" the neighbor snapped at the journalist, before pounced on him and kissed his head. The moment caused a great controversy on social networks, for which the reporter himself wanted to assess in the same Telecinco space what he experienced just a day ago.
Sandra Barneda, presenter of the program, added to the reactions at the moment and has been completely emphatic in her rejection of this episode of harassment, relating it to the controversy that splashes Rubiales. "I think there is a moment when some images are seen sportingly and for other things that are incorrect in a position in which you are, or you really ask for forgiveness, because the forgiveness was not convincing either, [...] I think that all this would have been avoided ", intervened the communicator.
"This narrative is putting citizens to face each other, when I think we should be, and begin to build a society where we have to talk about the things we have in common, that extremes have never worked and have always led to quarrels and a society we don't want," he continued.
Barneda considers that the issue of harassment is not only masculine or feminine, but of the whole of society. "This is not about whether I support the man or the woman, it is about that we have to end this and sportingly it is generated by what football generates, which is why it is called the king of sports, where socially it extrapolates everything what happened", continues contextualizing.
The presenter ended her speech by publicly defending the harassed reporter. "To me, that José Domingo, that a woman told a colleague that women can touch your balls and nothing happens, it offends me as a citizen, not as a woman or as a man, because it is not society in which I want to live, nor that women now believe that they have more rights than men, because that's not what it's about," he concluded.
