The story behind

Que no te haga bobo Jacobo, according to DoReSol

The sound of *Que no te haga bobo Jacobo* is supported by powerful basslines, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of the energy of bands like Rage Against the Machine. The piece begins with an image of a crying child, then immerses us in the scene of different groups of people watching a fictional newscast, MoloTV, presented by the members of Molotov themselves. In this invented newscast, the band members also appear as reporters, seeking people's opinions. Towards the end, bass rhythms executed with the *slap* technique are heard, courtesy of Micky Huidobro and Paco Ayala, which close the song. The total duration of this track is 3:24.

This track from the album *¿Dónde jugarán las niñas?* addresses the figure of Jacobo Zabludovsky, a well-known journalist in Latin America, especially for his work on the news program of Televisa. However, he was also a controversial figure due to his alleged bias, with him and the network aligning with the PRI, a party that governed Mexico for seven decades. The song also reflects on how some newscasts manipulate information, presenting Jacobo as a symbol of omission or intentional distortion of facts. In a conversation with Arturo J. Flores, it was raised whether Jacobo's name would be familiar to new generations and if they would fully grasp the message. Molotov's first studio album, *¿Dónde jugarán las niñas?*, was released in 1997 by Universal Music Group. The production was handled by Gustavo Santaolalla and Aníbal Kerpel. This album, which also addressed difficult and critical themes of the Mexican political system of the time, received a nomination at the 1998 Latin Grammy Awards for "Best Latin Alternative Rock Album".
