Aim returns to laSexta this week with a fresh special that grabs the spotlight for prime time on Tuesday night. The feature stacks a high profile interview with Rodrigo Rato, the former Vice President of the Spanish government under José María Aznar and ex-Minister of Economy, who has been navigating a long and controversial legal journey. The program promises a candid conversation about the path that led him to Soto del Real prison in October 2018, following convictions linked to the Bankia era and the infamous black cards case. The hour will mix personal reflection with a broader look at the pressures of public life, accountability, and the consequences of financial scandal that touched millions of Spaniards.
In previews, the host Ana Pastor is shown guiding a careful, pointed discussion with a figure who remains one of the most recognizable faces in the Partido Popular. The interview is framed around accountability and the human side of consequences, inviting viewers to consider how a prominent political career intersects with legal realities. Questions reportedly touched on the experience of the first night in prison, the possibility of regret, and the fear of returning behind bars, setting a tone that many viewers will find both intimate and provocative. The exchange aims to balance direct inquiry with a measured, respectful approach to a complex public figure.
This episode of Target will take the place of the recent run of The Boss Infiltrating on Tuesday evenings after a week of strategic scheduling changes at laSexta. The channel has retained its reputation as a dynamic and trusted brand, even as programming pivots to accommodate audience demand for in-depth, interview-driven formats that probe political and social themes with nuance and urgency.
Since the early part of the year, laSexta has continued to roll out special news-focused reports, including coverage of health topics, the ongoing situation in Ukraine, the shifting dynamics in Spanish politics marked by party leadership moves, and broader social issues such as women’s rights and empowerment. These pieces reflect the network’s ongoing commitment to informative, timely storytelling that resonates with viewers across the country and in the United States seeking insights into Spanish affairs and international relevance.
As with prior specials, the new program block situates itself within laSexta’s broader portfolio of investigative and human-interest programming. Viewers can expect a well-produced interview that blends built-in suspense with thoughtful inquiry, offering a nuanced portrait of a public figure who has long been at the center of political and legal debate. The special aims to deliver context, accountability, and personal perspective in a way that informs while it engages, inviting audiences to reflect on how leadership, law, and media intersect in modern times.
