Controversies
In July 2017, the Argentine Association of Actors issued a harsh statement criticizing Brandoni for some statements made at the time on the television program Intratables, where he described as "verse" (meaning "false") the current denomination of "civil-military" regarding Argentina's last dictatorship, while denying there was any important civilian participation or decision-making in the military government of the dictatorship.[6]
