Embón Quits 'Duro de Domar' After On-Air Clash With Pablo Duggan

Embón says he will not return to the C5N panel show after a live dispute over how to cover the Spagnuolo audio scandal.

Overview

  • During a heated segment, host Pablo Duggan called Horacio Embón’s historical analogy a triviality, ordered his mic cut and told him to leave, prompting Embón to walk off live.
  • Embón later told LA NACION he will not work again with Duggan and accepted a Saturday commentary slot on Indomables offered by the channel.
  • The confrontation erupted during debate on leaked recordings attributed to ex‑ANDIS chief Diego Spagnuolo that allegedly mention Karina Milei, Eduardo “Lule” Menem and the firm Suizo Argentina.
  • Embón referenced past Argentine political history with the word “laboratorio,” while Duggan insisted the panel stick to the night’s topic.
  • The exchange quickly went viral on social media, and Suizo Argentina issued a statement denying wrongdoing and pledging cooperation with authorities.
