The British government is facing growing political pressure to clarify its stance on the recent US airstrikes against Iranian nuclear facilities, as Foreign Secretary David Lammy repeatedly refused to confirm whether the UK supported the action or considered it legal.
The UK Foreign Office also denied Iranian reports that Lammy had expressed regret over the US strikes in a call with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

"To any observer who knows the first thing about the bikes in question — or bikes in general — anything on these AI-generated YouTube channels is clear garbage with no bearing on reality. But Google, the company once known for finding accurate results as fast as possible, now relies on an AI that has no concept of "truth" — just repeating words it sees used in proximity to each other, like your phone keyboard's autocomplete or a particularly dumb parrot. As this AI tech improves in its ability to mimic reality, while still remaining fundamentally incapable of differentiating fact from fiction, channels like Bike Culture Hub will only get more convincing. Our human ability to locate facts online will be compromised, and "people at dealerships asking for features that don't exist" is about the best possible outcome. It could get far worse from there."

Guiomar Roglán y Alejandro Sanz: El conflicto de intereses que nadie menciona
Guiomar Roglán, CEO de Moool, en su estudio de arte digital.
El contexto: Guiomar Roglán vs. Ivet Playà 📰
Ivet Playa, expresando una opinión sobre un conflicto de intereses en el periodismo.
Todo empezó cuando Guiomar Roglán, periodista de Artículo14, publicó una investigación donde acusaba a Ivet Playà de extorsión hacia Alejandro Sanz. Según el artículo, Playà se puso en contacto con la oficina del cantante para advertirles de que disponía de fotografías y audios de contenido sexual, y que los abogados de la fan le hicieron llegar en mayo una propuesta de inversión de 950.000 euros que Sanz rechazó. La investigación se presentó como periodismo serio y objetivo que desmontaba las acusaciones contra el artista.}
Anuncios
¿Te suena familiar? El clásico «No se dejen llevar por las emociones» 🙄
Inmediatamente después, las redes se llenaron de posts compartiendo este artículo con toda la superioridad moral de «no se dejen llevar por discursos de morbo» y «hay que escarbar bien para tener más información». El mensaje venía con esa típica actitud de «yo sí sé an
El problema: Nadie escarbó lo suficiente sobre la propia periodista 👀
giphy.com/embed/l378rhA6c1QhJD…
Resulta que esta «chingona de la investigación» no es exactamente una fuente imparcial. ¿Por qué? Porque casualmente es CEO de una empresa llamada Mool, que se dedica al arte digital y… drum roll 🥁 trabaja con varios artistas, incluyendo a Alejandro Sanz.
📱 La evidencia está en LinkedIn (porque siempre está en LinkedIn)
Galería de arte digital de Mool, exhibiendo obras de destacados artistas como Javier Mariscal y Alejandro Sanz.
Y no, no es especulación. Alex Tarrago publicó hace 2 años en LinkedIn:
«Estamos super orgullosos de haber trabajado con #Moool y con el gran equipo de Guiomar Roglán para mostrar al mundo su galería de #arte #digital, con obras de Javier Mariscal, Alejandro Sanz o Federico Babina 🖼️. Si tienes la oportunidad, visítalos en el #MWC2023 y ¡consigue tu NFT de Abe The Ape gratis! 🙌»
¿Ves el problema? Alejandro Sanz está literalmente mencionado como uno de los artistas con los que trabajan. Game over para la «imparcialidad» 🎮💥
🎨 Pero espera, hay más… (porque siempre hay más)
En una nota para El Independiente, la misma Guiomar explica su plataforma:
«Moool ofrece entre otras cosas, obras exclusivas a precios asequibles. Entre los artistas que ya trabajan con Moool se encuentran Abe The Ape, Javier Mariscal, que se ha lanzado al mundo del arte digital con su colección ‘Cómo nació Cobi’, Jordi Català y Alejandro Sanz. Esta plataforma grabó el corazón de Alejandro con un holter durante uno de sus últimos conciertos, y se convirtió en el proyecto Latidos, que ha transformado los cardiogramas en arte. El resultado han sido 15 obras únicas, que al ser bienes inmateriales, toman forma certificada de NFT.»
twitter.com/CapNenSJ/status/16…
O sea, no solo trabajan juntos, sino que tienen un proyecto súper personal llamado «Latidos» donde literalmente grabaron el corazón de Alejandro Sanz 💓 Y por si fuera poco, ese negocio era bastante jugoso: cada litografía costaba 400 euros. ¿En serio alguien pensó que iba a escribir algo negativo sobre él después de eso?
💰 Cuando el dinero habla más fuerte que la objetividad
¿Qué significa esto en términos reales?
Estamos hablando de un conflicto de intereses directo y brutal. Si uno de sus artistas queda mal parado, su empresa se ve afectada económicamente. Defender al artista no es solo periodismo, es proteger su negocio. ¿Cómo confiar en una investigación cuando quien la firma tiene intereses comerciales tan claros?
La ironía del asunto 🤡
La persona que compartió el artículo literalmente dijo «no dejarse llevar tan fácilmente» mientras se dejaba llevar por un artículo de alguien con claros intereses económicos en el resultado. Es como pedirle a un vendedor de carros que te diga si deberías comprar un carro… obviamente va a decir que sí.
🔍 Lecciones que nos deja este drama
1. Siempre investiga a quien investiga
Antes de compartir cualquier «investigación periodística», hay que preguntarse quién escribió esto, qué relación tiene con el tema y si tiene algo que ganar o perder con el resultado.
2. El periodismo independiente vs. el periodismo con agenda
No todo lo que parece periodismo serio lo es. A veces es marketing disfrazado de investigación 📝💼
3. La importancia de las fuentes múltiples
Una sola fuente, especialmente si tiene conflictos de interés, nunca debería ser tu única referencia para formar una opinión.
💡 ¿Cómo no caer en estas trampas?
giphy.com/embed/d3mlE7uhX8KFgE…
La clave está en hacer las preguntas correctas antes de compartir cualquier contenido. ¿Quién financia esta investigación? ¿El autor tiene relaciones comerciales con el tema? ¿Existen otras fuentes independientes que confirmen la información? ¿El tono del artículo es neutral o claramente defensivo?
🎯 La moraleja del cuento
La próxima vez que alguien comparta un artículo diciéndote «no te dejes llevar por las emociones, mira esta investigación seria», date un minuto para investigar quién está detrás de ese artículo. En este caso, la periodista que pedía objetividad tenía una relación comercial súper directa con el artista en cuestión.
Al final, todos tenemos intereses y motivaciones. La diferencia está en ser honestos sobre ellos desde el principio, no en esconderlos detrás de una fachada de neutralidad periodística.
¿Tú qué opinas? ¿Ya conocías esta conexión entre Guiomar Roglán y Alejandro Sanz, o también te sorprendió descubrir que la supuesta investigación imparcial venía de alguien con claros intereses comerciales? 👇👇

The image is an abstract painting with a vibrant and dynamic composition. The painting features a mix of colors and shapes that create a sense of movement and energy. The background is dominated by swirling clouds in shades of white, blue, pink, and orange, suggesting a sky at sunset or sunrise. The foreground is filled with a variety of geometric shapes, including rectangles and squares, in colors such as blue, gray, orange, and brown, which appear to represent buildings or structures. The brushstrokes are thick and textured, adding depth and dimension to the painting. The overall effect is a lively and abstract representation of a cityscape or landscape, with no clear focal point, inviting the viewer to explore the interplay of colors and shapes.

in reply to Josh • • •The image shows a display of potted plants at a nursery. In the foreground, there is a pack of "Curled Parsley" plants from Bonnie Plants, priced at $12.98 per pot. The label on the pack is pink with green and black text, and it includes a picture of the parsley plant and a bowl of salad. The label also mentions that the plant is highly decorative, suitable for both garden and garnishing, and has a fresh taste for salads and seasoning. It is labeled as "Non-GMO" and "Part Shade." The pack contains three pots, and the plants appear to be healthy with vibrant green leaves. In the background, there are other potted plants, some of which are visible on a metal shelf. The setting appears to be a greenhouse or nursery, with a green wall and soil visible on the ground.
