David Broncano is the great protagonist of the day. After weeks of intense debate about the future of the presenter on television, this Wednesday, April 10, the Board of Directors of Radio Televisión Española finally approved the signing of the comedian in an extraordinary meeting. In this way, the presenter of La Resistencia will arrive on RTVE’s La 1 next September to face Pablo Motos’ program, El Hormiguero.
The announcement was made official this morning, but the presenter chose to remain silent after all the media commotion that his possible signing had generated weeks ago. However, Broncano has changed his mind and wanted to give his first statements after the two-season, 28 million euro contract became official.
He did so through a phone call with the media outlet Informalia, where he wanted to reveal that he knew nothing about the decision that the Board of Directors of the public channel had made and where he confessed that it was a clear decision that he had made. ”I prefer not to say anything until they tell me officially and I know the details,” he began by saying.
Furthermore, the Movistar presenter assured the aforementioned media that he preferred not to comment on the issue for now and that he would speak when the time came. ”When I know something more, I will communicate my things. I’m not going to say more, because I’m finding out now,” he asserted. Finally, the comedian ended the conversation with a “thank you” for the interest shown.
David Broncano’s contract will be for two seasons and in each of them they will have 14 million euros. The first of them, which will begin in September 2024, is assured. However, the second season will depend on the audience the program achieves. If the new prime time access format fails to reach a 7.5% screen share, the public entity may terminate its contractual relationship.
Likewise, the casting vote of the current president of the corporation, Concepción Cascajosa, has been key for the agreement to go ahead, in addition to the absence of the previous interim president, Elena Sánchez, who did not attend the meeting and did not delegate her duties. vote in another councilor.
