Marina Calabro resigned from Jorge Lanata’s radio program after 9 years accompanying him with her entertainment column, in the midst of the journalist’s love scandal with her colleague Rolando Barbano, who ignored her in the last installment of Radio’s Martín Fierro. In this climate, journalist Ángel de Brito consulted Calabró about Lanata’s reaction to her and Iliana Calachó’s sister’s departure about her intimate chats with the journalist.
On a mobile with LAM (America TV)Marina Calabro spoke about her departure from Radio Miter and told what the message that Jorge Lanata sent her was like when he found out: “the summary of the message would be, nice things about my job, nice personal things and then he told me something very nice which is “In this small environment where we will surely find ourselves around the corner, the next one will be for nine more seasons.” “I was also expecting something going on!” Ángel de Brito joked.
Also, in statements to Teleshow Marina Calabro declared: “The truth is that it was a decision that I had been chewing on since March 19. Then came Martín Fierro and I didn’t want to affect my chances of fighting her. So it was delayed a bit, but it was a decision that we had been discussing with Andrea Rodríguez and Jorge Lanata since March. Finally, the time came for me to leave, but it is strictly professional. There is no hidden reason or anything.”
The first to anticipate Marina Calabro’s resignation
The first to anticipate Marina Calabro’s statement was Ángel de Brito, who confirmed that Iliana Calabro’s sister resigned from her column in Unfiltered Creamin Radio Miter. “The resignation had been planned since March 19, they asked him not to leave because he is a fundamental person in that media outlet. It has nothing to do with (Rolando) Barbano. The only reason is the reduction of his space: he went from having a one-hour participation to having 15 to 5 minutes of time for his column“, indicated the driver of LAM (America TV).
“Marina feels disappointed by this decision by the radio to shorten her column. That segment was very well sponsored, it had very good ratings, but when Radio Miter reduced the number of hours of the program due to Jorge Lanata’s health (from four to three), Marina went from having 60 minutes to having 15, hopefully, and shared with other columnists. The weight she always had vanished. They punctured it. Maybe she already received many radio, TV and streaming proposals,” De Brito added, explaining the reasons for Marina’s goodbye.
Later, Yanina Latorre revealed the hidden plot in Jorge Lanata’s program and surprised Luis Majul: “At Lanata’s table there is a topic of jealousy, who talks about first… they are all dizosWhat if the running one, or the book one, or the Marina one. There is a thing of competition over the space that each one occupies. Suddenly things start to happen and one column lasts a long time and another stays shorter, and Marina’s column started to last 5 minutes and started to get dull.” “In 5 minutes, when you had 4 songs… of all the songs she had, Lanata chose two to include and she did it running. Did you see when you noticed her on air that she is not comfortable,” Latorre closed.
