“I also understand the immediacy of social media and that LUN had to differentiate itself and had to go out and communicate something different. I couldn’t say Francisca won a gold medal Because everyone already knew that, but I would have liked them to say something else”the athlete noted.

Along these lines, Francisca Crovetto accused that “a bad photo was used, in a place where I was kissing my husband, the interview was very focused on whether I was going to be a mother.
