Marta Nebot fired from 'En boca de todos': the reactions

Last Wednesday, news of Marta Nebot's dismissal from the show 'En boca de todos' spread like wildfire through WhatsApp groups and social media. Within minutes, the comments were full of sharp remarks.

It didn't take long for references to a well-known episode in her life to appear: the one in which José María Aznar, according to shared memory, allegedly stuck a pen down her cleavage during a meeting. The anecdote has served as ammunition for many to attack her.

Others, meanwhile, took the opportunity to make puns on the show's name: "May it be in nobody's mouth," one regular quipped, capturing the feeling of those who believe she didn't deserve to be on air.

Nebot's departure leaves a bittersweet taste. While some applaud the network's decision, others denounce the digital lynching. Either way, her name will be on people's lips for a while, even if not in everyone's mouth.
