Mega Responds to Francisco Vidal’s Accusations: ‘Lamentable and Concerning’

In a bold move, Megamedia has expressed its ‘molestia y absoluto rechazo’ (displeasure and absolute rejection) to the recent declarations made by Francisco Vidal, the president of the board of directors of Televisión Nacional de Chile. This reaction comes on the heels of a similar response from Canal 13, further intensifying the controversy within the television sector.

During a session of the Culture Commission of the Chamber of Deputies, Vidal stated: No tener televisión pública… los chilenos se van a informar y entretener por parte de dos grupos económicos, el grupo Luksic en Canal 13 y el grupo Heller en Megavisión (Not having public television… Chileans will be informed and entertained by two economic groups, the Luksic group in Canal 13 and the Heller group in Megavisión).

Megamedia has categorized these words as ‘lamentables y preocupantes’ (lamentable and concerning), arguing that these declarations ‘buscan sembrar un manto de dudas en torno al rol la televisión privada en Chile’ (seek to sow a veil of doubt around the role of private television in Chile).

Mega Reaffirms its Commitment to the Chilean People

In response, Mega has reaffirmed its commitment to the Chilean society, emphasizing ‘el derecho de las personas para a acceder a una información veraz e independiente y a espacios de entretención creativos’ (the right of people to access truthful and independent information and creative entertainment spaces).

The company also highlights that it is ‘sujeto a una estricta regulación legal’ (subject to strict legal regulation), which it respects and rigorously complies with, underscoring its responsibility and professionalism.

Mega Criticizes Vidal’s Statements

Megamedia’s declaration harshly criticizes Vidal, stating that his words ‘no hace más que faltarle el respeto a cientos de trabajadores de Megamedia’ (do nothing but disrespect hundreds of Megamedia workers), emphasizing the personal impact of his statements.

Mega also points out the contradiction in Vidal’s words, reminding that the channel has ‘diversas ocasiones en que ha aceptado la invitación a programas de Mega’ (on various occasions accepted the invitation to Mega’s programs), where he has freely expressed his opinions.

Mega Defends the Television Industry

The company emphasizes the need for ‘canales de televisión sólidos y estables’ (solid and stable television channels) in Chile, considering that Vidal’s questioning is ‘un ataque a la industria de la televisión en su conjunto’ (an attack on the television industry as a whole).

Conclusion

Megamedia’s strong response to Francisco Vidal’s accusations highlights the company’s commitment to providing the Chilean people with truthful, independent, and creative content, while defending the integrity of the television industry as a whole. This exchange underscores the importance of open dialogue and mutual respect within the media landscape.
