Flor de la V addresses controversy over Daniel Avellaneda

Argentine media personality Flor de la V has sparked a debate regarding transphobia and media responsibility following controversial remarks made by journalist Daniel Avellaneda. Initially, Flor de la V announced on social media that Radio Rivadavia had terminated Avellaneda's employment due to his transphobic comments. She emphasized that her identity is legally protected and that freedom of expression does not exempt individuals from the consequences of their words.

However, the actress later clarified that the news of his dismissal was false, stating she had been misled by incorrect information. Despite the denial of his termination, she maintained her criticism of the situation, arguing that when a media outlet chooses to provide a platform to individuals making discriminatory remarks, the responsibility extends beyond the individual to the institution itself. She asserted that discrimination should not be normalized as mere opinion.
