Real Madrid demand resignation of LaLiga chief after Nazi propaganda comparison
MADRID, Oct 16 - Real Madrid have demanded the immediate resignation of LaLiga President Javier Tebas, following his comparison of the club's management rhetoric to the propaganda tactics employed by the Nazi Party in Germany. Tebas made the controversial statement on social media, stating that Real Madrid's management acts as an "orchestra of mouthpieces" and that LaLiga's TV channel leads the chorus.
The comparison was in response to articles by journalists in El Debate newspaper, who claimed Tebas and LaLiga were acting against Real Madrid's interests. Tebas also accused journalists of amplifying a message on behalf of the club's management. Real Madrid's demand for Tebas' resignation further escalates the ongoing conflict between the club and La Liga's chief.
In September, Tebas called for a new LaLiga president after criticizing Real Madrid for complaining about refereeing decisions, which he deemed a "smokescreen" for the team's shortcomings on the pitch. Tebas accused Real Madrid TV of selectively covering officiating at their matches. The comparison of Real Madrid's management tactics to Nazi propaganda mechanisms is intended to discredit the club, its management, and its television, according to LaLiga's president.
