Media / Multimedia / newscasts (Colombia) | | Spanish term or phrase: te dan mucha vuelta la noticia (in this context) | Hello, my friends. Here is a quote from a focus group comparing CNN to Colombian TV newscasts. I have starred the phrase that I'm not sure about, but I'm giving the rest for context.
"Acá, hay cosas, noticias de la que está pasando, diputados, hace unos días y ahí en CNN te daban la noticia del cubrimiento de cosas de acá, que aquí pues de pronto como que no han podido editar, no era tan directo, y la CNN sí fue directo a lo que está pasando, que uno pues quería escuchar mucho en la radio también lo que es la W y entonces está uno un poquito empapado de lo que está pasando en política, entonces [en CNN] te dan una panorámica de lo que está pasando; mientras que acá *te dan mucha vuelta la noticia* y hay como cierto solapamiento de lo que está pasando realmente
As always, thanks in advance for your help! |
