Although there is no official confirmation yet, this version has gained traction on social media. The controversy intensified after journalists and experts shared on X that the woman in the photo was allegedly identified as Florencia Franco Fernández, presumably an official linked to the Ministry of Finance and wife of Gabriel Yorio, undersecretary of the same institution. Amid InfodemiaMx's public rectification, versions circulating on social media point to the possible resignation of Jenaro Villamil, head of the Mexican State's Public Broadcasting System, which would mark a significant turn in the handling of the case. The indication of a possible resignation was spread by analyst Mario Di Costanzo, who stated that Villamil could leave his post in the coming hours due to the controversy generated by the 'balcony photo'. The controversy has also been fueled by criticism from public figures, such as former official Sandra Cuevas, who considered the sanction insufficient and demanded stricter measures. 'It has gone this far, the 'Palace balcony photo,' wrote Mario Di Costanzo. The images, which were initially dismissed as fake or generated by artificial intelligence, show a woman in a relaxed pose inside a historic building, with her legs exposed and sunbathing, which drew criticism for the use of institutional spaces. The turning point occurred when InfodemiaMx publicly admitted its error. After denying the authenticity of the images, the platform apologized and confirmed that the incident did happen, based on updated official information. In parallel, President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that the woman was sanctioned, though she clarified that there is no specific regulation prohibiting this type of conduct within the premises.
