Just days earlier, Motos attended the launch of a new beauty center led by Maribel Yébenes, a prominent face on the national network. Seizing the moment, he offered sharp commentary about the media landscape, highlighting a shift in what many outlets value today. He told El Televisero that in the past, truth carried weight for the press, but now the currency seems to be audience numbers and visit counts. This observation touched off discussions about how modern journalism measures success and influence. [Attribution: televised interview]
The host did not mince words when discussing the press’s role in shaping narratives. He warned that abandoning the truth could diminish the press’s authority and, ultimately, erode public trust.

Motos also addressed the topic of inviting Jorge Javier Vázquez to appear on the set of El Hormiguero. He admitted that bringing Vázquez onto the program had not been part of the original plan. Yet he left the door open, noting that while Vázquez may not fit a typical interview profile, the possibility could not be ruled out. The exchange underscored the show’s evolving approach to guest selection and the way conversations can shift course based on dynamic on-screen chemistry. [Attribution: show development]
