Pablo Motos and his team make a controversial decision about ‘El Hormiguero’ before Monday

Although the statements of several guests had already given a glimpse of what was happening, the tension between the two programs revealed by the harsh words of David Broncano has unleashed a wave of reactions that have divided spectators, public figures and former collaborators.

After Thursday, the decision of Pablo Motos and his team on how to confront this controversy will be key to the future of the two programs.

Last Thursday David Broncano revealed in his space on ‘La Revuelta’ what he and his team consider “maneuvers” by El Hormiguero to interfere with their work. According to the presenter of this type of practices They include pressure on guests and their representatives and had been happening since the program was broadcast on Movistar Plus under the name ‘La Resistencia’.

Broncano was especially critical when he said that ‘El Hormiguero’ would have required that guests They went to their set first or, in some cases, they directly avoided appearing on other programs as happened with the MotoGP rider Jorge Martín.

Pablo Motos’ decision

The only official reaction from El Hormiguero so far was a brief statement on social networks in which they described what happened as “a misunderstanding.” Since then, the silence has been absolute. No member of the team (including Pablo Motos, Jorge Marrón or the famous ants Trancas and Barrancas) has made statements on social networks or in other spaces.

Faced with the hurricane, the ‘El Hormiguero’ team seems to have made a clear determination: maintain silence at least until the broadcast of this Monday’s program. Not even Pablo Motos nor have any of the usual collaborators fueled the fire by giving their opinion.

This decision, although quite controversial, responds to the calculated strategy to prevent the conflict from escalating even further: letting time pass and not fueling the controversy could serve to calm the waters.

But this silence from the team has contrasted with the statements of former collaborators such as Jandro, Raquel Martos and flippy who did publicly show their support for Broncano

With the return of ‘El Hormiguero’ and the confirmed presence of Kira Miro and Save Queen as guests, the program faces the expectations of millions of viewers who are waiting to know how they will react to what happened.
