Television is at such low hours that it is better to take advantage of it as an open window to the broadcasts it offers live. It is still a magical environment in this. On August 4, Vitoria kicked off the Virgen Blanca festivities with Bajada del Celedón. ETB offered the event for an hour. Although San Fermin chupinazo is famous, what goes on in the Plaza de la Virgen Blanca is a replica of it, only in an area of infinite size and therefore demolished by a crowd of thousands.
What struck me most in the Spanish narration was the extent to which the language was corrupted by the blessed inclusiveness: everyone and everyone, neighbors and neighbors, men and women from Vitoria, workers and workers. So from the invisible commentators to the reporters on the street, it’s like it’s always mandatory. Worse still, in the mayor’s statements in front of the cameras.
So much so that, when viewed in cold blood (which is the way I can distance myself from watching any audio-visual over the years, whether I like it or not), it has unwittingly become a caricature of what it should be. Among the guests chosen by the ETB to interview a group of Saharan women, to say that the flag is not missing at the ready is all. It was all about integration and the safe side.
I hope that when many years have passed and someone has saved all this material, they will perceive it as as exotic and distant as No-Do seems to us. Meanwhile, no one has said anything about the huge nationalist banners displayed where they are most often seen.
