Karmele Aranburu, Oriotarra journalist dies
- On Thursday, June 22, the journalist Oriotarra died at age 65 from cancer. He held his career as a journalist mainly in Herri Irratia, being responsible for communicating the UPV/EHU Summer Courses between 1996 and 2022.
Being Gipuzkoan and accustomed to listening to radio, the voice of journalist Karmele Aranburu, journalist of Herri Irratia and head of news services, would be very easy for those over 50 years of age.
He worked mainly in the informative of the afternoon, in the session of 13:00 hours, and then entered with the sports themes with Tito Irazusta La movida deportiva. When the latter left the chain, the recently deceased Iñaki de Múgica took over. In the morning, in El Kiosko de la Rosi, journalist Mariano Ferrer died four years ago.
All of these names were well known on Guipuzkoan radio from the 1980s and 1990s, and one of them was Karmele Aranburu. In several interviews he talked about wanting to be a journalist from a young age, about how he had manifested it to his mother in his childhood, and in it he dedicated his whole life.
He studied journalism at the University of Navarra. He worked at Popular Radio from 1977 to 2009, was Communication Director of the Summer Courses of the UPV/EHU between 1994 and 2016 and Information Coordinator of the Basque Country Irratia between 2010-2013, when he was Director of EITB Alberto Surio. He also worked as a columnist in El Mundo del País Vasco and El Diario Vasco.
