According to Blandon, this campaign has been run anonymously originated in TVN, through the segment glosses "El Tamal", by decision of the former Minister Miguel Heras Castro, who is an important member of the business group of Motta.
"Defamatory campaign, which rises in recent months by glosses," Blandon said, by ensuring that for the first time gives a smear campaign against a journalist who was born in a media.
