With the incorporation of Francisco Moreno as news director of Mediaset, the two main Spanish television groups are left with two Canaries in charge of their news programs
“We embark on a new adventure"With these words, Francisco Moreno, sole administrator of Radio Televisión Canaria, said goodbye, which was his home for the last four years as head of the archipelago's public television.
From Malaga by birth but from the Canary Islands by adoption, Moreno came to the islands when he was 9 years old and lived both in Tenerife, where he began his career at the newspaper Diario de Avisos, and in Gran Canaria. His enviable professional career has been closely linked to the islands, where he has been head of news for the Canary Islands on Spanish Television, has assumed the Antena 3 delegation in the archipelago and has lived up to two stages at Radio Televisión Canaria.
Now, with three decades of experience behind him, Moreno packs his bags for Madrid, to be part of the Mediaset Group, which in the midst of the reconstruction process has decided to enlist the services of Francisco Moreno to direct a new era in Telecinco news. and four.
According to the first information, Francisco Moreno will be in charge of carrying out a profound renovation at all levels in the group's information services, which in principle entails a restructuring of content, new sets and media and even the return of the news programs to the Cuatro chain, a service they dispensed with a few years ago.
In Madrid, Francisco Moreno is going to meet another Canarian with a lot of experience behind him, but in this case in the rival group: in Atresmedia. This is Santiago González, from Tenerife by birth and general director of Antena 3 Noticias. A communication professional closely linked to Francisco Moreno himself, since during Moreno's first stage as general director of Televisión Canaria, Santiago González served as news director and was precisely the one who replaced him at the head of the public entity after his departure. in 2005.
Two careers born and connected in the Canary Islands that now coincide again in Madrid at the helm of the information services of the two largest television groups in the country.
