Nicolás Occhiato signed off from Miami with a message of defiance and gratitude. After covering the World Cup group stage in the United States, he confirmed that Nadie dice Nada, broadcast by Luzu TV, would return to Buenos Aires on Monday, July 6.

And so we come to the end of this coverage from Miami, and on Monday we’ll see each other again from the studio with a lot of material we recorded. Everything will come out next week, but from Buenos Aires.

· Nicolás OcchiatoHis announcement that the program would resume broadcasting from Argentina.

The host made the announcement during the final transmission from the rented Miami mansion where the team followed Argentina’s World Cup campaign. “And so we come to the end of this coverage from Miami, and on Monday we’ll see each other again from the studio with a lot of material we recorded. Everything will come out next week, but from Buenos Aires,” he said.

Occhiato also praised the team that made the live broadcasts possible. He noted that the group traveled with fewer people than the large crew that normally works on the program in Argentina. “Great work by the whole team. You have to understand that we came as a small group because in Argentina we work with a very large team to go on air every day as we do and maintain the level of program we have. So everyone had to give much more, 200 percent, because there were fewer of us, so I want to congratulate you,” he said.

· Nicolás OcchiatoHis praise for the reduced crew that produced the Miami coverage.

His remarks came amid the controversy over Florencia Peña’s departure from the streaming channel after she incorrectly reported the death of Jorge Messi, the father of Argentina captain Lionel Messi. Peña plans to sue Occhiato and the channel for 750 million pesos, or about $500,000, in damages.

We never stop growing, and that is a reality. We’re doing better and better, and we’re very happy doing what we do, and that isn’t going to stop existing. We’ll keep pursuing that.

· Nicolás OcchiatoHis response to the controversy surrounding Luzu TV.

Occhiato insisted that the dispute had not weakened the project’s momentum. “We never stop growing, and that is a reality. We’re doing better and better, and we’re very happy doing what we do, and that isn’t going to stop existing. We’ll keep pursuing that,” he said. He also thanked the show’s followers, calling them the force that keeps the program going and saying their affection reaches the team during every broadcast.

Thank you to the best community in the world, which is why we are here and why we do everything we do. It is the fuel that keeps us getting up every morning, sometimes with less energy than others, because of all the things that happen, but always wanting to make a good program for you.

· Nicolás OcchiatoHis thanks to viewers for supporting the streaming show.
