Vox has presented this Tuesday in Congress a proposal for a law regarding "the promotion on public radio and television of bullfighting as part of the historical and cultural heritage of all Spaniards" , to be discussed in the Mixed Commission of Parliamentary Control of the RTVE Corporation.

According to the document to which this newspaper has had access, the party of Abascal considers that it is necessary to "prepare a programming plan destined to promote bullfighting in Spain and abroad". And he points out the importance of "reinforcing its cultural and historical values and its importance as an economic sector".

He has asked that occur contained "no additional cost" in collaboration with the entities "public and private" in the bullfighting sector , as a way to alleviate the effects of the disease Covid-19 in the industry. For this reason, he calls for the contents to be executed with "the diligence and promptness required by poor expectations in celebration of bullfights."

And it demands that RTVE dust the archive of broadcasts "immediately in the different media" using "programs already published that show the historical and cultural heritage of all Spaniards."

Five years ago, the last bullfight was broadcast on TVE, from San Sebastián, coinciding with the reopening of the Illumbe arena. In 2011, RTVE closed the broadcasts "due to its schedule, generally coinciding with the protected schedule or with special protection for children," according to the Style Manual of the chain. Since then, the bulls returned punctually after processing the transition from Interior to Culture in the sector, until August 2015, the year of the last retransmission. Ponce, Manzanares and López Simón fought.

Vox justifies the non-law proposal with the audience data of the celebrations on public channels and believes that "public television should cover all genres intended to satisfy information , culture, education and entertainment needs."
