Mediaset Ana Rosa Quintana wins the trial against Pablo Iglesias for the opinion expressed on the management of residences during the pandemic

Ana Rosa Quintana, Mediaset and the director of El programa de Ana Rosa have won the complaint filed by Pablo Iglesias against them for the opinion expressed two years ago by the presenter during her program on the management of nursing homes during the pandemic.

"Justice has given the reason for this program after Pablo Iglesias' complaint that he put the director, Mediaset and me in for an opinion in the editorial that I do on the management of residences during the pandemic. At that time he was president. The judge estimates that the opinion was built based on the information given by the government team itself. That is, we have beaten Pablo Iglesias," Ana Rosa Quintana forcefully stated this morning on her program.

The former Vice President of the Government denounced The Ana Rosa program for a few words that the host of the space gave in her editorial. Two years later, the judge has agreed with the presenter and the chain.

Pablo Iglesias filed a complaint against Ana Rosa Quintana two years ago, for the following words that she herself said in her editorial: "The leader of Podemos blames Díaz Ayuso for the deaths in nursing homes, when he was responsible for the geriatrics".

An opinion that the presenter built, according to the judge, based on information that the vice president himself had given at a press conference during the start of the pandemic. For this reason, the judge has decided to agree with the program, Ana Rosa Quintana and Mediaset.

The judicial resolution concludes that "the letter sent by the plaintiff was not an attempt to rectify but to refute and reply to the presenter's critical opinion." For this reason, the magistrate ruled that Ana Rosa Quintana issued a value judgment in a space in which she was allowed, her editorial and that, furthermore, that opinion was based on that information given by the Government itself.

After the judge's ruling, neither Mediaset, nor the presenter, nor The Ana Rosa program will have to give a rectification, which is what Pablo Iglesias requested, and they will not have to give financial compensation to the former leader of Podemos either. In addition, the vice president is required to pay the costs.
