The week ended with a story that left several viewers cold: Juan Diego Alvira leaves Caracol. The same presenter confirmed it and said goodbye with some heartfelt words. Even behind the scenes he was seen crying, and of course, if he had been informing Colombians for many years.
“It was almost 12 extraordinary years, 4,170 mornings entering your homes, dear viewers. Thanks to the wonderful team at Noticias Caracol. I would not be the journalist that I am without Noticias Caracol,” he assured.
In the networks, the comments have not stopped and Juan Diego has been a trend. But just as messages full of affection have been read, others have also appeared a little negative, calling the famous “liar”. The reason? Just a few days ago, he assured ‘I know everything’ that the rumors of his departure were not true and that he did not intend to leave the channel.
“The delirium of social networks and the digital world, which began with all kinds and types of rumours. That Juan Diego Alvira he was leaving, that he was going to change jobs, that he was leaving Caracol. The truth is that, don’t worry, it’s not in my plans, at least not close.”
Several remembered his words and did not hesitate to claim him on the networks, that he was not sincere in that conversation with the media. “He deceived us; I seriously thought she wasn’t leaving” and “she broke my heart with that lie”were some messages on the subject.
However, others came out in his defense, assuring that, perhaps, the offer of a new job came days later or that, He simply did not want to say anything at that time because it was not confirmed yet.
What is Juan Diego Alvira’s new job?
It is worth mentioning that, although Juan Diego has not talked about the subject, it is already known where he is going. The journalist will become the new director of the Semana video unit and will be in charge of developing new content in digital formats.
In addition to that, Vicky Dávila, director of the magazine, welcomed him with a message on Twitter: “We are happy! Juan Diego, we hope that with all your talent and the affection of your followers we continue to grow and inform Colombia in new formats”.
