The operation to incorporate David Broncano RTVE has had a clear political derivative from the beginning, as anticipated Informalia when he uncovered when no one had seen it coming, at the end of February, the interest of the President of the Government and the Public Corporation in the showman from Jaén.
The Anthill It has been, for a long time, one of the programs that most bothers people. Pedro Sanchez that, “for agenda reasons”, as he acknowledged at the presentation of his latest book, he could not be the star guest on the first program of the latest attempt at an antidote against Pablo Motoslos Chinese stories how much they choked their friend Jorge Javier Vazquez on Telecinco. We also tell that. Perhaps the President of the Government could make room to reinforce the revival of The resistancedespite the fact that David Broncano has refused to interview active politicians in the years he has been hosting the Movistar Plus+ late show.
But the scenario that now opens has politics as the key to the operation, since Moncloa has made calls to both Movistar and RTVE (de facto controlled by them) to facilitate the signing of Broncano. The situation of rebellion that the interim president has led Elena Sánchez Caballero“dead professionally for the PSOE”, they acknowledge on RTVE itself, has delayed an operation that may be resumed in the coming days, perhaps with changes in the amount (more than 14 million euros per season) or duration (three campaigns).
Doubts in RTVE
RTVE 1 could be mortgaged by signing a contract worth more than 40 million euros that, perhaps in the first week of September, will prove to have failed. And the producers of the show, El Terrat (Mediapro) and Encofrados Encofrasa (participated by Broncano himself), had included some striking clauses that forced RTVE to pay them 14 million euros even though the show, due to its poor ratings in prime time , was banished at dawn.
Broncano would obtain professional insurance on free-to-air television in the form of continuity that neither Mediaset España nor Atresmedia could guarantee, which do not sign a show for three years even if it is more proven than a niche format such as The resistance, a success among “paid” centennials but a mystery as an open mainstream product. There are doubts about whether it could compete with Motos, Sobera or Wyoming.
Movistar Plus+ puts itself in profile
Juan Andrés García Ropero ‘Bropi’, head of Entertainment at Movistar Plus+, expressed confidence last December in the renewal of the program presented by David Broncano. “The truth is that it is a pleasure to have a job with such a brutal impact. And after so much time, this May they will complete 1,000 programs and there is a lot of merit in doing what they do every day. The truth is that I don’t think it will take us long to understand with them, but we have not yet started negotiating. We are focused on the current season and it is too early to address the renewal,” he said, as we gathered.
However, in recent weeks Movistar Plus+ has remained silent and, apparently, maintains a motionless posture, perhaps waiting for the failure of the RTVE negotiation to open the door to the possible continuation of The resistance.
Of course, 14 million euros a year, not to mention. Because Movistar Plus+ is disinvesting in entertainment and has internal audiences for La Resistencia that are moving away from the extraordinary impact that Broncano enjoys on social networks.
