La revuelta and El hormiguero
Since La revuelta's direct competitor, Atresmedia's El hormiguero, is perceived as critical of Spanish prime minister Pedro Sánchez, the high-profile hiring of Broncano by public broadcaster RTVE generated public scrutiny and controversy among right-wing milieus. It also brought internal strife within the RTVE board members and the ensuing tit for tat dismissals of José Pablo López (as director of content) and Elena Sánchez (as interim chair).[5] Regarding accusations, Broncano told that "to say that Pedro Sánchez has chosen me is ridiculous, offensive and a lie."[6]El hormiguero collaborator Juan del Val [es] claimed that "the problem is not Broncano, the problem is that Moncloa[n. 1] wants to end Pablo Motos".[7]
On 21 November 2024, David Broncano announced that he would not be able to interview that day's guest, 2024 MotoGP World Championship champion Jorge Martín, who was already in the program's dressing room, because he had been pressured to go first to El hormiguero, on Antena 3.[8] Due to being unable to broadcast the interview with Martín (which was shot nonetheless) on date, La revuelta chose to air 12 minutes of dialogue-free footage from a documentary on the bellow of deer instead.[9] The host of El hormiguero claimed that it was "a misunderstanding" and that the controversy was an example of "journalistic malpractice".[10]
