Francesca Fagnani guest of Fabio Fazio on Che Tempo Che Fa. The leading face of Rai in the program that more than any other represents the limits of Rai at this moment. The ironic words of the host of Belve, in this key, take on a completely different value.
There was great anticipation for the participation of Francesca Fagnani at Che Tempo Che Fa. The presenter of Belve, who has become one of the leading faces of Rai in recent months due to the success of her Belve, was a guest on the program which, in recent weeks, has been compared with that of Fabio Fazio.
In particular it happened for the interview with Fedez, compared in tone and tenor to the one a few weeks earlier Fabio Fazio had done to Chiara Ferragni, considered softer and perhaps too bland. Fagnani was a guest of Fabio Fazio to talk about her latest book, Mala, in which she deals with one of the topics of greatest interest in her journalistic career, which she continues to pursue despite the success of her interview program.
In introducing himself to Fabio Fazio, Fagnani said bluntly: “Now that I have come here I can also retire“, joking with the host for the prestige of the program. An irony that nevertheless makes us reflect, precisely because of that kind of involuntary conflict that Fagnani’s presence arouses at this moment in the Che Tempo Che Fa studies. In a period in which Rai seems to be literally the object of a daily process of devaluation and a loss of credibility resulting from a political clash between the majority and the opposition, Fabio Fazio’s broadcast has become synonymous with a schism that is tracing a new geography of the Italian television system.

From this perspective, the presence of Francesca Fagnani da Fazio almost lights up an automatic warning light in the perception of the public, who reads in her presence something more than a simple presentation of a book, but the legitimation of herself in a television elsewhere to which she could why not return in case of particular circumstances, despite the fact that you have sworn loyalty to Rai. And if this hosted event takes place on the same evening in which Franco Di Mare humiliates Rai for his behavior after learning of his health problems and Antonio Scurati decides to appear on television for the first time after the censorship scandal in Rai, the association between situations does not seem so imaginative.
