The mythological ircoSaviano, the writer half dissident and half collaborator

While the intellectual tells of an authoritarian government that tries to silence him, it emerges that in the new schedules Rai has confirmed its program in prime time. The logical holes in the narrative on Meloni’s “regime”.

Roberto Saviano has decided to embody a new mythological figure, similar to the ircocervo, that of collaborationist dissident: persecuted and conscripted by the regime. In recent months there are two issues that, more than the others, are fueling the controversy around the Meloni government: the open conflict with the judiciary, which openly opposes the justice reform of Minister Nordio and is accused by the majority of plotting against the government; the rotations and purges in Rai, depending on the points of view, of journalists and presenters. The overall picture is that of a government that struggles to keep the judges at bay, but manages to reclaim public television from critical and non-aligned voices. However, it is not clear how the narration that Saviano has been carrying on for a few months can fit within this framework.
