Sandra Borghi Leaves El Trece After 25 Years as Disputed Accounts Emerge

She framed the move as a personal choice, while a pundit's claim of a dismissal and rumors of a switch to LN+ have not been verified.

Overview

  • On December 19, the journalist delivered an emotional on-air farewell on Mediodía Noticias, closing a 25-year run at TN and El Trece with her children present in the studio.
  • Borghi had co-anchored the midday newscast with Luis Otero since March 2022 after building her profile as a distinctive street reporter.
  • In her sign-off, she said she was “choosing to close a cycle,” describing the decision as difficult and tied to personal milestones like turning 50.
  • Following the broadcast, entertainment hosts revisited reports of prior friction with channel management, recounting alleged disputes that preceded her exit.
  • Panelist Yanina Latorre alleged on LAM that Borghi was fired and indemnified and other commentators speculated about a move to LN+, but there has been no confirmation of those claims.
