Débora Plager

(51) spoke of the controversy that revolves around the continuity of

Intratables

(America, Monday to Friday at 10 p.m.) and the new format of the historic cycle of debates carried out by 

Alejandro Fantino

(49), something that would have of very bad humor to the journalistic panelists of the program.

"The truth is that it is a day to day. Fate wanted me to be there every day since Alejandro is in charge of

Intratables

in

ShowMatch,

so

I was not going,

" explained the journalist in

Los Angeles in the morning

(El Trece, Monday to Friday at 11am).

"I do know that Alejandro met with my colleagues, that he is looking for and that in that search he

has to make a decision

as a host of what he wants to do,

if he wants to do

Intratables

or wants to do another program

and he has to make it transparent," added Plager . 

"Intratables is very successful because it sets the agenda and had different drivers and it always worked," Plager said in "LAM."

Capture TV.

"

Didn't you get to talk to him about it?

" Asked Ángel de Brito (45),

LAM host

.

"No, because he held a meeting with his colleagues seeking to amalgamate the profile of the journalists who make up the program with him as the host and he is looking for the format," he explained. 

At the same time, Plager defended the original dynamics of the talk show.

"What happens is that for me the format exists and it is

Intratables

. I am a big fan of the program and it is very successful because it sets an agenda and had different hosts and it always worked.

Halfway does not work: either it continues

Intratables

with Fantino as host or Alejandro he says 'I want to do something different' and makes it transparent, "he

continued firmly. 

"Having dinner with Fantino," De Brito interrupted her.

"

Sure, 'Dining with Fantino', but you have to make it transparent and put it on the table to avoid ..."

, Debora replied.

The "A la carte with Fantino" format was incorporated into "Intratables".

Capture TV.

In addition, the journalist referred to the "untidiness" mentioned by the jury of

La Academia

(El Trece, Monday through Friday at 22) and said: "That is the production that is

trying to please Alejandro

about what want to do". 

On the decisions of the cycle, Plager revealed: "They are seeing the situation of the day,

the most relevant issues

and if it is an issue that has nothing to do with current politics they say 'well let's make the journalists' table smaller and privilege another linked to sports ... '. They decided that at 18, so my colleagues said that they did not know until the last minute how the program was going to be structured. "

Débora Plager said that "either he continues Intratables with Fantino as driver or Alejandro says 'I want to do something different' and makes it transparent".

Fantino's release

This Monday, Fantino spoke of the change in format since his arrival at the América cycle about the end of the program and assured that it caused a stir.

But at the same time, it

gave peace of mind to its panelists

, among whom are Diego Brancatelli, Paulo Vilouta and Plager.

"

We would never attempt against the

Intratables

format

because this program is a cannon, I am proud to be able to lead it. If we touch something, it is to make it grow and enrich," explained the host. 

"There was a great stir when we tried with the production, simply

enriching with a format of being able to dine with people

who are usually very difficult to fold into a political discussion," he said.

Regarding his teammates, Fantino highlighted: "They are going to stay working with me.

I love working with them, they are the best journalistic table.

Of course there may be some change, as tomorrow I can go too. But it is because of me I hope they stay. I tell them looking into their eyes, I told them today at a meeting. "
