New president of the CNTV, Faride Zerán: “It is necessary to deconcentrate the media”

The Minister spokeswoman of the Government, Camila Vallejo, presented on Thursday afternoon the new president of the National Television Council (CNTV) -appointed by President Gabriel Boric-, the journalist Faride Zerán. At a press point, Zerán said that “it is necessary to deconcentrate the media.”
The former director of the Institute of Communication and Image (ICEI) of the University of Chile was consulted by an eventual media law. “I don’t know if we have to move forward on a new media law. What I do know is that we need more public media, greater plurality of media,” he said.

“It is necessary to deconcentrate the media, which for example are in the hands of a few in the written media,” Zeran emphasized.
“If that’s through a media law, it certainly has to be done. If that is through effectively endowing, empowering the organisms that already exist, we have to equip them, we have to empower them,” he added.
Minister Vallejo said Zerán will take office on April 11, and not on the first day of the month as had been commented on in the media.
