A forty of hooded men broke into the sets of RTVE de Catalunya this Wednesday, where the news program 'El Cafè d'Idees' directed by journalist Gemma Nierga is broadcast. The program had to start at 08:00, but the broadcast could not start due to the irruption of the protesters.
The protesters entered the set, stood in front of the cameras and displayed a banner that read 'Living cannot cost us our lives.' And they have not let journalists do their job of reporting.
At 8:24, Gemma Nierga lamented the situation on social media in a video in which she recalled that the work being carried out by public television is done respecting minimum services.
"This program had prepared a special edition dedicated exclusively to reporting on the strike and made with personnel assigned as minimum service," Nierga lamented.
The journalist has reported that they have not been able to do their job because "a group of protesters has entered the set. "They have prevented us from exercising our right to inform and from allowing you to receive and have your right to receive information," she asked the audience.
Nierga recalled that journalists are considered an "essential service" and once again regretted that these protesters violated people's right to be informed.
