Flor de la V strongly condemned the transphobic attack on sex workers in Palermo, stating: "Hate speech kills."

Argentine TV host Flor de la V condemned a coordinated attack by a group of teenagers against transgender sex workers in the Palermo district of Buenos Aires. Speaking on her show 'Los profesionales con Flor' on Channel 9, she described the incident as organized violence where perpetrators used social media to coordinate the assault under the slogan 'we are going to hunt transvestites.' De la V criticized the circulation of the violent footage online and urged prosecutors to identify the responsible parties through legal action. She linked the event to broader hate speech originating from high levels of power, arguing that such rhetoric contributes to real-world violence despite previous legislative achievements for the LGBTQ+ community in Argentina. Finally, she called for increased participation in the upcoming LGBTQ+ Pride Parade scheduled for November 7.

Bias read (Progressive): The article frames the incident as state-perpetuated hate speech and emphasizes the necessity of protest marches, aligning with progressive advocacy rather than neutral reporting.
