RAI is simply a state tv which should theoretically aim for representativeness standards, providing all political option for access to audiences. However, as past shows, power parties frequently succumb to the temptation to transform tv into a megaphone of their own government line. This was erstwhile the Prime Minister's function included Berlusconi, which the alleged Bulgarian edict led to the blockade in the RAI of unfriendly names, condemning at a press conference in Sofia the allegedly "criminal" usage by 2 journalists and a state media comedian and calling for the fresh RAI leadership not to let more specified events to take place. This is besides the case today, erstwhile the ruling right-wing gags the opposition, pushes unwanted news from the planet to the background – from Gaza to Iran – and does not let popular guests who warrant ratings and gross from advertising, but do not share a government line.
The opposition shall not vote
"TeleMeloni" is simply a RAI censoring and without shame serving as an information tool for decision-makers, as the foreigner understood, including "Le Figaro", writing about the Italian right controlling the media and information, to instill in the public the thought of strength and determination. The first victim of this mechanics was tv news, which stopped giving up the opposition microphone and full took over the dominant ideology, overnight getting free of contrasting opinions. RAI journalists reacted besides late due to the fact that about a year and a half after the introduction of the verification system, but in an unprecedented way. In live press releases, little than 3 weeks apart, they expressed their willingness to get out of obsessive control of content that had expanded to information and amusement formats in the meantime.
Shortly before Scurati RAI's latest case, she was on the brink of criticism erstwhile a popular program discussed abortion... without women. The comments were ruthless: “A fewer men in the studio talking about abortion: RAI in Meloni time allows to discuss women's rights only to a male audience! What happened on the show Porta a PortaIt's very serious. We must halt this fall and prevent gross violations of the principles of sex equality." Then it got worse. April 20th writer Serena Bortone she revealed that the RAI had stopped short, numbering any 3,200 characters monologue of her guest, author of bestsellers about Fascism and Mussolini – and this despite the fact that Andrea Scurati agreed to compose it for 1,500 euros, although he demanded a better rate – on 25 April, the anniversary of Italy's liberation. due to the fact that Scurati connected fascists between the poems to Meloni's government, he fell out of vision. The resignation was justified by "editative reasons", but neither the author nor his supporters believed it, considering resignation after the contract as a means of manipulation. A period before Scarati, the same thing happened to writers. Nadia Terranova and Jennifer Guers, whose opinions were to appear in an episode in which they referred, among others, to the case of sleeping by police students protesting in Pisa.
‘TeleMeloni’ exists
Has it yet reached the public that the problem is not only those who make TV, but besides those who watch and pay for it due to the fact that their deficiency of reaction cements censorship? There is hope that the RAI will get a small bit out of control, due to the fact that after the most fresh publicized cases the downloaded texts are widely distributed and in solidarity with authors they are besides read publically by writers and students.
