Tv Ciudad costs almost 8 million dollars annually

The channel was founded in September 1996, and from that moment until now, it has been a propaganda outlet in favor of the Frente Amplio in general, and of the entire Uruguayan left in particular.

TV Ciudad is dedicated purely and exclusively to broadcasting programming in favor of leftist ideas, denigrating and insulting any social or political sector that is not aligned with the left.

With the taxes collected from all Montevideo taxpayers, the Frente Amplio administrations since 1996 have set up a television channel to carry out political, social, and cultural propaganda in favor of the left.

Any other expression that is not aligned with socialist, communist, or feminist ideas is denigrated or simply ignored.

Responsible mayors

First was Mariano Arana starting in 1996, who served again as mayor from 2000. In 2005, Ricardo Ehrlich took office, in 2010 the communist Ana Olivera, in 2015 the socialist Daniel Martínez, and in 2020 the radical feminist Carolina Cosse.

All these leftist mayors used the channel for their own benefit and in favor of the Frente Amplio.

With the money of all taxpayers in Montevideo, they misused the channel to attack everyone who doesn't share their ideology.

Attacks on those who think differently

Fundamentally, TV Ciudad is dedicated to attacking liberal, patriotic, nationalist, or conservative individuals or organizations.

Any individual or organization that holds liberal, patriotic, nationalist, or conservative ideals is immediately exposed to hatred and public contempt with lies and defamatory accusations.

Million-dollar budget

Montevideo has been covered in garbage for decades, the streets have potholes, and the squares and parks are full of filth.

Despite this, the various Frente Amplio mayors have strengthened TV Ciudad.

They have used it as a propaganda tool that, as mentioned, is paid for with the taxes of all Montevideo residents.

Waste of everyone's money

According to sources from Montevideo's own City Hall, the total budget for TV Ciudad was approximately 304 million Uruguayan pesos.

Around 7.6milliondollars annually.

It is an exorbitant and gigantic figure.

The city government doesn't carry out its basic tasks such as garbage collection, cleaning of squares, or street paving. However, it wastes millions on a propaganda channel.

The Uruguayan left, through Montevideo's city government, uses the taxes of all taxpayers to set up a propaganda machine.

It is worth remembering that TV Ciudad is broadcast 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

This means that their propaganda message is broadcast all the time.

Of course, it is perfectly acceptable for a political organization to carry out propaganda and promote its ideology.

However, this should always be done with its own resources, and never with the resources of the State.

Using taxpayers' money for political and electoral purposes is completely immoral.

Leftist modus operandi

All socialist dictatorships in the world use the State apparatus to promote their ideology and to eliminate those who think differently.

This totalitarian, authoritarian, and anti-democratic method is not new.

To give some historical examples, in the Soviet Union a phenomenal propaganda apparatus was set up that lasted for decades.

In Cuba since 1959, and in Venezuela under Chávez, the same scheme is followed: using the money paid by ordinary citizens to promote the ideology of the ruling party, and of course to insult and attack anyone who doesn't share the ideology of the current socialist tyrant.

In Argentina, the ultra-corrupt governments of the Kirchners used the state channel and set up the program "6, 7, 8," where they invested millions of dollars in promoting the Kirchnerist government and in demolishing opposition democratic political leaders with defamation.

Currently, we have the example of Spain under Pedro Sánchez.

The Spanish Socialist Workers' Party has poured hundreds of millions of euros into friendly media outlets so that they praise it and cover up the corruption scandals of its government.

The money was provided by all Spaniards through their taxes, not by the socialist politicians.

Dark figures

The channel has figures who are very controversial. One of them is TaniaTabárez, daughter of former national team coach Oscar Tabárez.

She has a daily column called "La descarga," where she is dedicated to disqualifying and attacking all those people or organizations that are not leftist.

She uses a space paid for by taxpayers to denigrate anyone who doesn't agree with the Frente Amplio.

Another figure is EnriqueAmestoy. This individual calls himself a "hacker" (pirateinformático) and is a columnist on the program "Así las cosas."

Amestoy testified last February in a Specialized Family Court for serious media attacks against a girl with disabilities.

He was subjected to judicial measures to stop his attacks on the minor.

TV Ciudad, pure immorality

Wasting almost 8 million dollars a year on the television channel is a total and absolute absurdity.

TV Ciudad should be shut down immediately.

Montevideo residents have no reason to waste millions of dollars a year on a channel that only favors leftist ideas and that constantly attacks any group or citizen who doesn't share its ideology.

Mario Bergara will take office as mayor in a few days, and everything indicates that he will continue to feed the party machine.

TV Ciudad is a channel with very low ratings, and only figures aligned with the Frente Amplio appear as communicators or "journalists."

It should be shut down immediately.
