The representative Robert Garcia doubles his disappointment with CBS for his performance management of Bad Bunny’s Grammys.
On Wednesday, the California Democrat called CBS for not having offered closed legends in Spanish during the Bad Bunny performance and speeches During the broadcast.
Bad Bunny launched the Grammys with a mashup of “El Apagón” and “Después de la Playa” from his record album A summer without youwhich later won the Prix for the Best Album by Música Urbana. When he interpreted his Spanish tongue tracks, legend “[SINGING NON-ENGLISH]”Parent; during his acceptance speech, the legend”[SPEAKING NON-ENGLISH]“Was displayed.
In an open letter to the president and chief executive officer of CBS Entertainment, George Cheeks, Garcia wrote that the company should “take serious measures to remedy the failures that made this error possible”. The letter was reported for the first time by Variety.
Garcia explained its dismay with CBS on Thursday in a statement to Buzzfeed News. “This question concerns respect. The millions of Spanis living in the United States deserve equal treatment and consideration as CBS English-speaking viewers,” he said. “When millions of Americans have passed to watch the Latin artist Record Bad Bunny play on one of the biggest stages in Hollywood, they met a reminder that for CBS the Spaniard is simply [NON-ENGLISH]. “”
CBS has subtitled performance in English, which is the standard of industry in the United States, where the use of the term “non-English-speaking” in legends is also what is normally used.
