La Pulla is a Colombian YouTube opinion journalism program owned by the journal El Espectador created by María Paulina Baena, Juan Carlos Rincón, Daniel Salgar, Santiago La Rotta and Juan David Torres[1] and presented by Baena.
History
La Pulla YouTube channel was opened in April 2016,[2] In a November 2016 interview with Semana, Maria Paulina Baena, presenter of the program, said that Juan Carlos Rincón, El Espectador coordinator, was thinking in a video editorial with "a different tone"; she was contract by El Espectador after receive a mail where she was request for introduce herself in two castings. In the same interview, Baena sured that she and her team leadered by Rincón thought in names for that program like Los Indignados or Los Emputados, but they select La Pulla because that name, Baena sured, "fits with the insolent and vehement tone we want".[3]
In 2016, La Pulla upload a video called "Ahora resulta que si hay apagón va a ser culpa nuestra" (Now it turns out that, if there's a [national] power cut, it would be our fault) in the context of the 2015-2016 energy crisis of Colombia ocasionated by El Niño. The Colombian goverment did a response to that video called "La Contrapulla", which was extremely hated in social media.[4][5]
During the 2018 Colombian presidential elections eves, La Pulla did a video called "Gustavo Petro NO merece ser presidente" (Gustavo Petro DON'T deserve to be president). The video was strongly criticized by the La Pulla followers, which sured that the program "sold theirself to the Petro opponents".[6] One of the most notable critics to this video was maded by the colombian YouTuber Lalis Smile, who started the video saying that "When [La Pulla] says that [Petro] is despot, selfish and more is just talking about his personal manner of being. I've see Gustavo hugging indigenous [people], kids, recyclers. I don't think he in some moment have been act like despot, or hitting somebody".[7]
In December 6, 2018, Santiago Rivas Camargo, presenter at the time of a program called Los Puros Criollos transmitted in the free-to-air Colombian public TV channel Señal Colombia, did a video with La Pulla called "ÚLTIMA HORA: la ley que van a aprobar a escondidas" (BREAKING NEWS: the law [the Colomian politicians] will approve on the quiet) where they criticized the TIC law, a public law that, they sured, "would end with the public television in Colombia". A few hours after La Pulla published the video, Rivas reported in the social media website Twitter that Juan Pablo Bieri, business manager of RTVC (operator of Señal Colombia) at the time, decided to quit Los Puros Criollos from the Señal Colombia dayparting. The desition was understood by the fans of Los Puros Criollos and La Pulla as "a way to censor Rivas as punishment for participate in La Pulla video".[8][9][10] After the polemic, in January 2019, Bieri renounce to his employment as business manager of RTVC;[11] the renounce was accept by the colombian president Iván Duque in February 1, 2019.[12]
In 2020, La Pulla upload a video patrocinated by Carros más Seguros called "¡CUIDADO! Nos están vendiendo carros peligrosos" (Be careful! [They're] selling to us dangerous cars) where they say that the Mazda 2 (one of the ten most saled cars in Colombia) doesn't meet the global minimal security norms for cars. Nobuyuki Sato, president of Mazda Colombia, sent a letter to La Pulla requiring an apologize of his part. In the letter, he sured that the Mazda 2 model showed in the video was saled in México, not in Colombia. La Pulla, in answer to the letter, change the description of the video by adding an apologyze clarifying that the Mazda 2 model showed in the video wasn't saled in Colombia, but instead, was saled in México.[13]
Reception
Daniela Cristancho Serrano from Directo Bogotá, magazine owned by Pontifical Xavierian University, said that La Pulla "use colloquial language, irony and dramatization [for do their videos]" and sured that the team of the program is irreverent.[14]
The program, however, has been strongly criticized in social media. In an article published in April 2017 by Nathalia Acero in the section El libre pensador of the website of the Universidad Externado de Colombia called "Lo malo, lo bueno y lo bien feo de “La Pulla”" (The bad, the good and the strongly ugly of "La Pulla"), she sured that:[15]
Are some users in the social medias which argumment that "La pulla" is not a good journalistic media, they underline that the way Maria Paulina Baena express not just gets off "good" journalism standards, but also remits to just "scream" the news, not to tell it.
