The Court upheld the fine imposed by CNTV against the private channel, following the broadcast of this content during hours of protection for minors.
The Court of Appeals of Santiago ratified this week the millionaire fine that you will have to pay Chilevision for the issuance of the Cony Capelli’s remarks on abortion during his stay in Big Brother in 2023.
It all started as a result of a conversation between the reality show winner and Jorge Aldoneyduring a broadcast live and direct by signal, on a Sunday, between 3:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.
During the conversation, the dancer referred to her experience and declared: “I was pregnant, but I had an abortion. I had an abortion at three months because I was in a very toxic relationship, and I didn’t want him to be the father of my child.”.
After acknowledging this event, Capelli added that “It wasn’t a good relationship, and I think it would have been unfair for that child to have been born into a shitty environment (sic), where two people couldn’t stand each other.”
The reasons for the fine and the huge amount that Chilevisión will have to pay for Cony Capelli’s comments
The problem behind the sayings of Cony Hairis that these had emission no editingin a special chapter that aired during the child protection schedule.
The judiciary explained the reason behind its decision: “It should be noted that the CNTV is accused of having broadcast, during hours of protection for children and adolescents, a program that exposes the practice of abortion in a banal manner.”
To this, they added that “What is reprehensible is not that the subject of pregnancy interruption was touched upon during a protective time, but that it was carried out without the proper safeguards.”. Since at that time, the topic should have been addressed from an educational perspective, which also reflects the different positions on the issue.”
For this reason, Chilevisión will have to pay a fine of 200 UTM, that is to say, more than 13 million Chilean pesos.
