On Thursday, on the 3/24 news wheel, there was a very comic narrative subtlety hidden among the headlines. It was a fleeting incision, only available to those who watch television carefully. One of the news explained that this year the Palafrugell Havaneras song would not end with My grandfather As it was tradition so far. And they explained the reason: “To José Luis Ortega Monasterio, the author, the documentary Walls of silence From 3cat he linked him to a case of sexual exploitation that the family denies. ” The beautiful Lola and brandishing the handkerchiefs in the wind. The brief fragment of the song they selected for the headline was, precisely, “ay qué placeeeeeer …. felt yooooo”. The choice, premeditated or unconscious, made a smile inevitable. That after remembering the discovery of Walls of silence About Ortega Monasterio, who linked him – present – to a sexual exploitation network, choose these verses to close the news is a bit comic. Whatever the case, the subtlety is appreciated. Given the pile of tragic news that we see at 3/24, it is good that we have given us this eye bite with this sibilí humor.
