Pablo Víctor Balario dies during live Comadreja TV premiere

Argentine journalist and television host Pablo Víctor Balario died following an acute myocardial infarction during the live premiere of the digital streaming channel Comadreja TV. The incident occurred in Villa Arcadia, Buenos Aires, approximately 90 minutes into the inaugural broadcast.

Balario, 49, suffered a sudden health crisis while interacting with guests and colleagues on camera. His daughter was present in the studio during the event. He was rushed to the Hospital Menor Dr. Emilio Aldaya in Sierra de la Ventana, but medical staff were unable to resuscitate him.

Balario had a history of cardiac issues, having survived a previous heart attack in Buenos Aires years prior, which prompted his move to the Buenos Aires mountain region for a quieter lifestyle. He was a prominent local figure, known as a singer, radio announcer, and host of the Fiesta Provincial de los Reyes Magos. His colleagues at Comadreja TV announced they would continue programming in his memory.
