She was well known for her coverage of political scandals, such as those surrounding the collapse of Felipe González's government in 1996. She won three Ondas Awards, an annual recognition given in Spain to major media personalities and shows.

She is known for keeping in touch with her listeners’ daily problems through the show's long call-in segments.
