22.12.2025 ⇢ The Day of El Gordo and Gallardo's Resignation
⌨Early morning editorial coverage focused on the definitive results of the Extremadura regional elections, with headlines highlighting the People’s Party victory and María Guardiola's inevitable dependence on Vox following the PSOE’s collapse. By mid-morning, however, media attention shifted abruptly to the Christmas Lottery. Editors prioritized the social narrative of 'El Gordo' (79.432) landing in León, specifically in areas recently affected by wildfires, framing the event as a moment of collective relief.
In the early afternoon, the political cycle resumed dominance as Miguel Ángel Gallardo resigned as the PSOE leader in Extremadura. This move was framed by conservative outlets as the first major casualty of the 'Sánchez cycle,' while progressive media focused on the internal debate regarding whether the party should facilitate Guardiola’s investiture to sideline Vox. By evening, editorial priority remained split between the fallout of the Socialist leadership vacuum and the continuing human-interest stories from the lottery winners in León and Madrid.
