THE controversy between The revolt And The anthill is far from being resolved. On the night of Thursday, November 21, David Broncano launched a severe accusation against The anthill. The presenter accused the program hosted by Pablo Motos of “pressuring” and “threatening” celebrities so that they do not switch to the TVE format sooner. The 7 and the action space reacted quickly, but the controversy did not stop.
However, the truth is more complex than what Broncano expressed at the Príncipe Gran Vía theater. The man from Jaén highlighted that The anthill prevented him from carrying out the interview he had prepared that day with the Moto GP world championJorge Martin. “I was going to come. In fact, it’s here, and as recently as we were told that in The anthill “They had discovered that Jorge Martín came here first,” he said.
“Since they don’t want anyone to come here before there, they pulled their strings. They have ways to get these things done.and Jorge told us that he couldn’t do the program because otherwise certain things would happen,” he continued. Broncano thus exploded the controversy. The anthill He reacted on social networks, specifying that everything was just a “misunderstanding”.
“It was a little misunderstanding.. Two weeks before the final, we agreed to have Jorge Martín exclusively on our program. Today, one of their representatives made a mistake by changing the planned visit with another pilot. After what happened, Dorna, the organizing company of the Motorcycle World Championship, contacted representatives to resolve the situation“, explained the program in a post on X.
A controversy in which Broncano did not tell the truth. The presenter was unaware that the interview had been recorded. Not only that, but the man from Jaén told a somewhat different version of reality. As EL ESPAÑOL learned, there was a call from both The anthill like Dorna and the pilot’s representatives. However, these were not “threats”, but a reminder that Martín had a “priority agreement”.
As highlighted The anthill In your message there was a misunderstanding between Martín’s representatives. The motorcyclist has more than one representative and a communication error between them This led Martín to attend the interview at the Príncipe Gran Vía theater. According to sources reported to BLUPER, initially the interview was planned with Pedro Acosta, instead of Jorge Martín.
A foreign error
However, The organization of the format requested to modify the interview of Martín and one of the representativesAlbert Valera, gave the green light without consulting the other, who had managed the priority agreement with The anthill. This is after the pilot shared an image on Instagram indicating that he was going The revolt when the team The anthill and Atresmedia react and that’s when the calls took place.
These calls took place after the recording, so Broncano had no leeway to change the November 27 schedule. Despite Broncano’s serious accusations, The interview took place and there was no “threat”, only “execution of a priority contract”. After his first interview with Pablo Motos, which left “very good feelings”, the rider had already negotiated a return to the format.

On the other hand, Dorna is the organizing company of the Motorcycle World Championship and has an agreement with Atresmedia for the broadcast of three Moto GP grand prix. It is therefore logical that it is a priority to first give an interview to a format of the channel located in San Sebastián de los Reyes.
Furthermore, the same sources specify that competition between The revolt And The anthill It’s healthy. Moreover, They point out that Jorge Martín’s interview with Broncano can be broadcast once the rider gives another one to Motos.which is scheduled for Wednesday, November 27. This shows that there is no problem for Antena 3’s format, as its guests also frequent similar spaces.
Plus, it wouldn’t be the first time this has happened. One of the first examples is Ana Mena, who moved to the Broncano format after visiting the Motos format. Hovik Keuchkerian, Mario Casas and Carmen Machi also visited both programs, with a temporary one-week separation. There is also the case of Belén Esteban, whose visit to The anthill This happened weeks after he went to The revoltIn this case, the businesswoman first negotiated with Motos, but ended up going to Broncano first. As we could see, the young girl from Paracuellos had no problem having a good time with Trancas y Barrancas.
It was a little misunderstanding. Two weeks before the final, we agreed to have Jorge Martín exclusively on our program. Today, one of their representatives made a mistake by changing the planned visit with another pilot. After…

The TVE version
The version provided to TVE admits that the interview was recorded, but differs on the dates. As Adela González pointed out in Mornings This Friday, November 22 The Society accepted Martín’s visit on November 8. Despite the dance of appointments, Both versions destroy David Broncano’s speech about the impossibility of doing an interviewas well as the so-called “pressures” that he denounced.
The truth is that The revolt It’s not a very good month compared to October. The anthill He has been leading for several weeks against the Broncano format for several days. In addition, last week, the prime time access program of La 1 did not dominate any of the three days in which it faced the Moto space.
In addition, There was the reaction of Jorge Martín, who publicly thanked Broncano for the interview. “Thank you to the entire team of The revolt and to the public! It was a great evening! “I will be back soon and we will share it with everyone,” he expressed on his X account.
Thank you to the entire team @LaRevuelta_TVE and to the public! It was a great evening! I will come back soon and we will share it with everyone ❤️

The pilot thus reacted to another post from The revoltin which he implicitly confirmed that there had been an interview with the world motorcycle champion. “In case of doubt, Jorge Martín and his team did everything possible yesterday to ensure that the interview could be broadcast. Their behavior was impeccable and I hope we can invite them again later. and celebrate with him that he is world champion”, they communicated on the same social network.
Broncano didn’t tell the truth
However, the team The revolt does not officially declare that the interview took place and that the reason for its non-delivery is linked to a priority contract (no exclusivity, since the pilot can grant interviews to other television programs), something common in the media and to which Broncano himself is no stranger.
Although Broncano does not impose a priority contract against The anthillyes he does it in front of the other TVE talk show, Fire Xouthe program presented by Marc Giró on La 2 and which is weekly. The man from Jaén is therefore aware of this type of agreement.
