Lucia Annunziata’s drama as seen by the newspapers

Lucia Annunziata's drama as seen by the newspapers

Di Lucia Annunziata I have frankly lost count of how much of his almost 73 years he spent at Rai with the most diverse positions, including that of president of the company. But years that she now claims to have lived as a 'political prisoner', albeit a very well paid one, I suppose. Damato's Scratches

In a country submerged to a great extent by water and mud, with deaths perhaps fully ascertained but with still partially calculable damage, there is enough to cry – and also to be indignant at all that could have been done and has not done in terms of prevention – to save tears and words of understanding and solidarity with the actors in the latest political drama. Che Repubblica defined "TeleMeloni" and the manifesto as "the binge": what would have just been carried out by the Prime Minister, allies and accomplices, let's call them that, referring to the oppositions who also managed to occupy armchairs, chairs and stools, but for this they satisfied themselves and therefore they too rose up, each in its own way, against the renewed subdivision.

In the race to protest or, worse, victimhood, the one who stood out for cunning, conquering most of the headlines in the newspapers, was the journalist Lucia Annunziata. Of which I have frankly lost count of how much of his almost 73 years he spent at Rai with the most diverse positions, including that of president of the company. But years that she now claims to have lived as a 'political prisoner', albeit a very well paid one, I suppose. And of which she would only get tired now that the turn of the landlord has fallen to the Melonian right, and no longer to the centre-left, and the like, or to the centre-right of the Berlusconi era.

For some time a columnist for La Stampa , my colleague has felt the delicacy – this too must be admitted – of not starting to write about her television story in the historic and authoritative newspaper of Turin, which nevertheless dedicated a big headline to it, acknowledging her the merit of having went to Rai "slamming the door". The sister company Repubblica , from the same publishing group, took care of representing Lucia's drama by having Giovanna Vitale tell us already on the front page, complete with quotation marks in the title, that the interested party "was thinking about it for some time" to stop "doing the political prisoner", albeit for some years only for "half an hour more" every Sunday on Rai 3. Which Libero wickedly translated, now that he has irrevocably renounced, in "half an hour less"

In short, Annunziata did not even want to try, even though she had just been assured by the renewed management of the company that she could dispose of her space, to resist the pressures and interferences foreseen by her due to the new political course, and already suffered in the numerous previous years . Frankly, I repeat, more than a tragedy it seems to me a drama. Which I hope my colleague does not end in the way hypothesized by a newspaper like Il Foglio , which also esteems her so much that it has made use of her collaboration in the past – if I remember correctly. “A seat with the Democratic Party?” asked Il Foglio , thinking of the European Parliament to be elected in a year. On the other hand, it is a road already traveled by other more or less large public TV brands.
