No representative of the PP in any way participate in television, radio or release statements to journalists Prisa Group, booking of advertising space on the average of the group have all been canceled. The PP responds well to hostile statements of the Group of dominus, Jesús de Polanco.
had to happen sooner or later, that between the PP and the press war breaks out. The crispación , the continuous rise in the level of controversy and political conflict, carried out by the PP and some English media, has long been the target of the press.
also tested certainly not close to the government, as the conservative-monarchist ABC , many commentators and politicians of different tendencies, had expressed their opposition to the use of each theme, also extremely sensitive, as the massacres of Madrid in 2004 and the policy on terrorism as a means of political struggle and to attack the government. What was normal
the battle is on with Prisa Group, which represents the democratic Spain that, after the transition, made its entry into Europe.
was enough to Jesús de Polanco, dominus of the group (a power which is part of the editorial, including others, the best-selling newspaper, El País , and the most popular radio station, Cadena Ser ), during a speech at the council general meeting of shareholders, when asked by a shareholder, did express criticism crispación , because the PP decides to declare war. De Polanco said the group tries to be neutral but it is difficult to share the political action of some parties, which builds a climate guerracivilista, which are events that highlight the Francoist symbols.
And again that "The group Prisa wants to cooperate because in Spain there was a right-wing party modern, secular, and the desire to preserve what there is to preserve and transform what is to be transformed, supported him. That's what we're missing. Already we have an absolutely democratic left party, that works. He must have had successes and mistakes. But we do not have the other side of a right-wing party to whom it is said, the alternanzne in power have no other consequences that the change in leadership. Not with what seem to be preparing: if these guys recover the power they will do with a desire for revenge that I, personally, it gives a lot of fear. "
course, we went down hard, but did not say anything that is not shared by many in Spain, although do not possess the largest publishing group in the country. Other steps can be found here .
The PP has aroused the fury of the first harsh criticism, too, Reporters without Borders, the section of English RWB, issued a statement condemning the "blackmail" of the PP. While the Directive Board of the Press Association of Madrid ( APM) has asked parties "That in no case restrict journalists' access to information."
