Adal Ramones Alleges Rival Network Intimidated Sponsors of TV Azteca’s La Granja VIP

Ramones reports supplier threats that strained production for the reality show’s premiere.

Overview

  • In a livestream and media comments on Oct. 15, the host said executives from a competing network warned vendors they would lose future work if they supported the program.
  • He characterized the conduct as unfair competition and said some providers withdrew while others stayed, forcing last‑minute substitutions.
  • Ramones declined to identify the network or the executive he referenced in his account.
  • Production partner Fremantle was affected, and the premiere showed technical problems after the team scrambled to source equipment and services from new suppliers.
  • No broadcaster has issued an official response, and online speculation persists despite Ramones indicating the company in question was not Televisa.
