Strong declarations. In the edition of June 25th of ‘Magaly TV The Firm‘, Magaly Medina launched a harsh criticism towards Tula Rodriguez and the financial management of IRTP (National Institute of Radio and Television of Peru). The host expressed her surprise and dissatisfaction with the salary of 32,600 soles that Rodríguez receives as a host and her performance at the event. Inti Raymi in Cusco.
As recalled, the former host of ‘En boca de todos’ attracted attention when she was selected along with Manolo del Castillo to host the official broadcast of Inti Raymi, one of the most important ceremonies of Inca culture held annually in Cusco. However, her choice was criticized on social media due to her lack of knowledge about the holiday. Despite everything, the ex-vedette acknowledged her lack of knowledge in certain aspects, but she expressed her interest in learning and her enthusiasm for participating in the coverage.
Given this, Medina questioned how the channel state can afford to pay such a large sum to Rodriguez. “How will Channel 7, Peruvian Radio and Television, have money? How much money will he now have the luxury of spending on hiring Tula Rodríguez? “She has paid him thirty-two thousand six hundred soles,” she said at the beginning. Medina.
The criticism of Medina was not limited to the financial aspect. She also attacked the influencer for her lack of preparation for the event. According to the journalist, upon arriving in Cusco, Rodriguez He publicly admitted that he knew nothing about the holiday and that he ‘had come to learn’. “And what does Tula Rodriguez as soon as she gets off the plane and is interviewed there in the Plaza de Armas of Cusco? Saying that she came to learn because she doesn’t know anything, because for her it’s her first time. So she came to ask and see and of course she made such a fool of herself,” he said. Magaly.
The figure of ‘Magaly TV La Firme’ He also questioned whether the payment of 32,600 soles to Rodriguez included their regular salary or whether it was an additional payment just for the event in Cusco. In addition, questions were asked about the budget and management of the state channel, suggesting the money could have been used more efficiently.
“You would have to ask him, right? What is your budget? How much did they pay you to take her to Cusco? Apart from the fact that she is one of her staff drivers who is paid 32,000 soles. But there, when you arrive in Cusco, how can you tell the people of Cusco, whether it was Arequipa, whether it was Ancash, which region of Peru cannot come and say, ‘I don’t know anything, I’m going to come to learn,'” he said.
For Medina, it is unacceptable that a driver hired for such an emblematic event does not prepare adequately. “If they hire you to animate something as emblematic as the Inti Raymi of our imperial capital, the least you do is learn before you get on the plane. At least you Google, you read a couple of history books, you read everything there is about it and you are well prepared. That way you don’t act like he did.”
“So, if you are a tourist, go as a tourist, but don’t give them a microphone and make you narrate everything you have to describe about a celebration that has so many years of history. No, well, leave it. I have come to learn, learn, of course, learn, but first don’t make a fool of yourself. What a shame,” he concluded.
