An oversight, a form of snobbery or subtle censorship? The director of Tg1 Gianmarco Chiocci exclusive interview Pope Francisthe Rai 1 news is full of listeners, but well, surprise, Corriere della Sera And republic They don’t dare devote even a single line to this fact. The suspicion is high: Isn’t it perhaps a kind of retaliation because Chiocci is “into Meloni’s share”?
Chiocci had also interviewed the Pope when he ran the Adnkronos agency. The exclusive broadcast on Tg1 confirms his ties to the Vatican and the skills he has demonstrated over many years as a pure reporter. Bergoglio offers very harsh and meaningful sentences about what is happening in the world and also in Italy. For example, the one about the danger ofanti-Semitism: “The hate is still there. It is hidden,” says the Holy Father. A very intense personal meeting, which was also praised as an “example of public service” by Filippo Sensi, Matteo Renzi’s former spin doctor and now Commission deputy P.D and certainly not because of sympathy for the government or for the “new” Viale Mazzini.

But Corriere della Sera only uses this sentence from the interview (and on page 10). So much so that, as Il Giornale reports, “one of the many insiders, amazed at the journalistic underestimation,” went so far as to slander: “Did they close it before 10 p.m.? If the Pope had interviewed him.” Fabio Fazio They would have opened the newspaper for us.” Especially since the numbers on Rg1 were crazy: 5 million viewers in prime time and Share of 27 percent.
And Republic? “It would be difficult to make it worse, but she did it: the Pope’s sentences end up in the headline and in the Berlin correspondent’s article in a mash-up on the topic of anti-Semitism. No dedicated article from Rome, no photo of Bergoglio with Chiocci (who the Corriere also forgot), nothing at all,” the newspaper always writes, but underlines that 5 pages after the newspaper reference from Maurizio Molinari dedicate an article to the crisis of public TV ratings.
