The M5s, is not governed by the mal – media of The Republic

The IDEA of a “revolution normal and friendly” – held in Palermo from Virginia-Rays should be better explained to the group of ultras who, at that meeting, he attacked to his hands and swearing journalists as journalists, therefore the servants of the powers that be.

The defense of the category as such is really interesting. Said that there are journalists good, others less good, others so-so, you already said everything necessary, and it is quite superfluous to add that it’s not good to beat them, especially the less talented who are the ones who should be closest to the heart of the true revolutionary.

Interesting, however, would be to understand how it substantiates and where he is going to parry, politically and culturally speaking, that special and delicate branch of the hostility to the “caste” (the true ones, and those presumed) that is the hatred for journalists: one of the cornerstones of grillismo. The party, in the best hypothesis, as a radical critique of the media, judged the mirror image of the power, self-referential, distant “from the real problems of the citizens”, the threat to take, along the way, veins putiniane hand to hand that the Movement is closer to the button room.

As is inevitable, the increase in the liability increases the pressure of the media: if the Rays was merely a young advocate, and live serene. But it has become the mayor of the capital of Italy, and so here she is hit by a tsunami of words and images that is certainly very difficult to hold from the human point of view, but has as the only “principal” the desire (and the right) of the public opinion to know how things go in the Capitol. This pressure is not always correct and not always true to its mandate: I wrote a few days ago that I found useless and horrible the siege of reporters under the private residence of Virginia’s Rays, and I’ve written on this journal, not on a blog, the corsair, because the print – I was going to say: the democracy – is strong enough to know how to contradict.

question: is the Movement strong enough to bear to be contradicted? Or chasing a model (half-ridiculous, half disturbing) of self-sufficiency of the media which claims to autorappresentare (as do the schemes, only schemes) their actions? If the touchstone must be the blog of Cricket, even leaving aside any controversy about the authoritativeness of the interventions (which also counts), the level of aggressiveness, the contempt of the other, the superficiality of the reviews, it is even below that of many journals policies using the tumult, and carelessness like the bread. The verbal violence of the piazza and of the blog, therefore, public, against political opponents, against anyone who, governments and its alleged “servants” is from the first moment, from the parts of the Shackle, a strong dish. It is not bullying the media, also with its rosaries of fuck? What is the better, more virtuous, especially of the more “real”, that way to relate to the world and to the people, compared to the system of information (as is, with all its abominations and its omissions?

it Would be interesting to understand what kind of “information” the Movement would have liked, or self-produced, on the history of the roman, in the case of the hated “powers that be”, and their servants with a notebook and camera, were put finally to rest. That the quarrels of internal have been amplified and dramatised is possible, and it is a defect typical of the media, which tend to the emphasis, on the other hand, even when dealing with quisquilie, let alone the government of Rome. But they came out – thanks to the media – also errors marchiani, political interference, (winning) the eternal right roman, goffaggini, jealousy, immaturity: no, you had to/could write about?

Grillo, from the stage, has not been able to say in that regard that some jest, not in tone, to say, with its renewed status as a leader, to come to a party that has ambitions of the government. Slightly better than did other parts of the state increased (whose composition remains inscrutable), claiming that the incident was so unpleasant, but caused by “the editorial choices decided in the high floors”. You need someone to explain that to the “high floors”, now, we live them. In the Capitol, on the contrary, only them. Govern, and since the world is world with the people he governs, when he sees a journalist, must knot the tie, smile, try not to be fooled by the “evil” questions, skip a few stupid questions, respond to the intelligent questions. And to know that that, too, is his job. As it says in the bar: you wanted the bicycle? Pedal.
