Spanish journalist Juanma Castano has apologized for comparing Real Madrid TV to the Basque newspaper Gara, after his comments sparked a strong reaction from Real Madrid. The journalist, who works for Cadena COPE, made the comparison in a column published by ABC, criticizing the way Real Madrid's official television channel has covered refereeing controversies.

Castano acknowledged that his comparison was excessive and unnecessary, apologizing specifically for comparing Real Madrid TV to the newspaper Gara.
