El pueblo de Puerto Rico y todos los latinos merecen algo mejor
Note from GLAAD
Brian Pacheco, Spanish-Language Media Strategist at GLAAD[In English] A young man is kidnapped, robbed then beaten to death and his body burned. Adding to this already awful situation, TV host, Antulio “Kobbo” Santarrosa and the life-sized puppet he voices, La Comay, re-victimize publicist José Enrique Gómez Saladín by suggesting that if he allegedly was in an area known for “prostitution and homosexuality,” as his killers claim, he may have brought the violence on himself.
Un joven es secuestrado, robado, golpeado hasta la muerte, y su cuerpo luego es quemado. Para empeorar una situación ya horrible, Antulio "Kobbo" Santarrosa mediante su personaje La Comay (una muñeca de tamaño natural) re-victimiza al publicista José Enrique Gómez Saladín al insinuar que él pudo haber sido responsable de su propia muerte por haber estado, supuestamente y tal y como lo han afirmado sus asesinos, en una zona conocida por "la prostitución y la homosexualidad".

GLAAD's Monica Trasandes wrote a blog post about Puerto Rican show SuperXclusivo and defamatory comments by La Comay. More than 20 elected offcials and organizations have joined the call to hold the network, Wapa, accountable.
