"In Rai they knew but no one did anything, making themselves accomplices in Fedez's political soliloquy and his attack on a deputy minister of the Republic".
Strong stance against the Sanremo Festival by the Brothers of Italy .
In the viewfinder Fedez, who in recent days had attacked the deputy minister Galeazzo Bignami for having "disguised as Hitler" .
The Fedez show, in particular, declares Tommaso Foti , group leader in the Chamber of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni 's party, «would have been rehearsed before the official broadcast. Disturbing details that are coming out and which, if confirmed or rather not denied, will necessarily lead to an immediate clarification. At present, it emerges that the Ariston stage has been transformed, with the consent and approval of Rai, into an electoral forum».
«We firmly ask – continues Foti – that the top management of viale Mazzini explain exactly the dynamics of the story and act accordingly as quickly as possible. Otherwise, it is clear that someone, unable to guarantee the plurality of the public service, will have to leave his office as soon as possible ».
Also in Fdi's sights are the messages launched by some singers, such as that of Article 31 for the legalization of cannabis . "Our government will never legalize cannabis or any type of drug," said Alfredo Antoniozzi , deputy group leader of the Brothers of Italy in the Chamber.
Rai harshly replies with the words of Stefano Coletta , Rai prime time entertainment director, at a press conference from Sanremo: " If a manager has to answer for everything that happens live, we should all resign, from the first to the last manager Rai . That is, what happens live is not predictable especially if it is linked to the artists I cannot, and I would say that I should not know ». And again: «I think I'm doing my job best, I'd be careful to use the omitted check in an instrumental way. I find it uncivilized."
As for the notorious freestyle (among other things produced by Fedez): " Only in the run-up to the broadcast did we learn that Fedez would no longer bring the text that had been delivered to us for days, refusing to deliver the new one". «We check all the texts, even that of the minor segments, but we have not received any texts - added Coletta -. We have received all the texts from the other performers: only Fedez has changed . The indication for everyone was never to make political references, even if there was no national level playing field, there are regional elections. Reasons why I strongly dissociated myself from the action of Fedez from the beginning. I didn't know he was going to tear up a deputy minister's photo."
