News Summary:

On April 28, 2026, the European Broadcasting Union expressed concern regarding a Spanish Senate committee of inquiry established to examine Radiotelevision Espanola (RTVE)'s editorial practices and governance. This follows RTVE's confirmation on April 22 that it would not broadcast the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest, marking the first time Spain would not air the event since 1961. Spain had previously announced on April 18 its decision to not broadcast the competition in protest over Israel's continued participation, aligning with an earlier report in December that Spain would join Ireland, Slovenia, and the Netherlands in not participating in the contest. Earlier, on March 29, RTVE and The Walt Disney Company agreed to a licensing partnership, making selected RTVE programs available on Disney+ immediately after their broadcast on La 1, in what is believed to be a first-of-its-kind European deal.
