New example of manipulation of TVE through its News. Reports from the public channel recounted the visit of the Kings, Pedro Sanchez And Carlos Mazon in Paiporta, one of the areas most affected by the DANA– minimize the President of the Government’s flight from the insults of the victims and make believe that the victims’ discomfort was directed mainly against Philip VI And Ms. Letizia.
First, they wanted to emphasize that Mazón, president of the Valencian Community, is the only one responsible for the limited aid that reaches the most devastated populations when in reality the central government has the power to decree the state of alarm and send more troops. Secondly, almost all the information that was given about the visit in the second edition of the television news on Sunday November 3 led us to believe that the insults were directed mainly against Their Majesties, while the fact that Sánchez fled was mentioned. almost in passing and it was justified.
Actually, TVE changed the signs of their news in a significant way today. While at first they mentioned Sánchez in the riots, they later focused the protests and insults from the people of Paiporta on the kings.
“From Moncloa we are told that from the moment the mud balls were thrown,The president’s bodyguard activated the security protocol and they evacuated him to the forward command post. The objective of the visit, Executive sources tell us, was to convey their solidarity to the population. “They insist that Sánchez and the rest of the delegation are fine,” said Asier Anzola, TVE journalist, during the second edition of the program. News on La 1 on Sunday November 3.
The main news of this day was the visit of Kings Pedro Sánchez and Carlos Mazón to Paiporta, one of the areas most affected by DANA. While Felipe VI and Doña Letizia continued to speak to the population, visibly worried, trying to calm things down and comfort them, the President of the Government chose to act with fear. The Valencians started throwing mud and stones at the procession, shouting “assassins!”, “Pedro Sánchez, where are you?!” and “son of a bitch!” Ultimately, the visit had to be suspended.
All the newspaper reports that day focused mainly on the presence of the kings, as if they were guilty of something. Sánchez’s escape is only mentioned at the end of the videos, insisting again and again that the socialist leader “is fine” and that he only wanted to console the victims. And of course, he supports this scare, saying it was the decision of Sánchez’s bodyguards. Furthermore, another public television journalist insists that journalists work in “a rather hostile environment.”
The Kings stay and Sánchez flees
But the reality was very different. As already reported in OKDIARIO, an avalanche took to the streets to demand the resignation of Sánchez and Mazón. Even though the Monarchs were protected at all times by their security apparatus, they insisted on remaining in the area to listen to what the street was shouting. Sánchez, who at no time attempted to mediate, was also protected. Suddenly, even the journalists were unable to locate the Prime Minister: he had already left.
On the other hand, at first, security took Felipe VI to the car, but he got out of the vehicle so as not to leave the scene.
The visit of King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia, as well as Pedro Sánchez and Carlos Mazón, was scheduled for early Sunday morning. No one confirmed the exact time and location the day before to avoid mockery against the President of the Government until the delegation was already in full flight to Valencia. Finally, the delegation could not avoid the anger of the neighbors most affected by the worst flood in history. They made their discontent known to Sánchez, who was at the center of the anger of hundreds of citizens.
