The media manipulation of public television
In recent years, RTVE has become a scenario where politics and communication are melting in a worrying way. President Pedro Sánchez has managed to transform this medium into a propaganda platform, masking his actions with speeches on the fight against misinformation.
Misinformation strategies
Sánchez’s tactic can be summarized in a repetitive pattern: first, denying his intentions; then act in the opposite direction; Finally, attack those who dare oppose him. This dynamic has been applied to numerous issues, from agreements with other parties to controversial decisions such as pardons or tax reforms.
The new RTVE editorial line
With the appointment of figures such as Silvia Inxaurrondo, RTVE has abandoned its function of public service to become a government speaker. The viewers have observed how the contents have been disproportionately inclined to the PSOE agenda, leaving aside the objectivity that it was supposed to govern their broadcast.
The crisis of public televisions
The current situation of RTVE reflects a broader problem that affects public television in general. Many citizens ask why they should accept means that act as instruments of government propaganda. The absurdity is obvious: If we would not tolerate a state newspaper written by officials, why should we accept the same principles on radio and television?
Alternatives to manipulation
In the face of this reality, the first step is to boycott RTVE programs. However, there is a more proactive way to answer. When we hear the voices of the presenters that promote misinformation, we can adopt a opposite position. This strategy will allow us to position ourselves with the knowledge and the truth, even though it is a response to manipulation.
The importance of informed criticism
In a world where information is often distorted, it is essential to maintain a critical stance. Adopting an opposite perspective on RTVE can help us identify hidden truths, ensuring that, despite attempts to control, society can access more accurate and balanced information.
