His name was circulated in the early editions of the whole appointments a few weeks ago. But in recent days it was gone, as they do when you do not want to burn a real candidate. Renzi wanted a woman to balance a board where men are seven out of eight, after the addition of Marco Fortis, the professor of Catholic indicated yesterday by the Ministry of Economy. He also wanted a young president, or at least not old, given the average age of a board of directors where just yesterday we saw the grain pensioners. Woman and young.

Monica Maggioni, a career in public television

 

First had also tried with Caterina Caselli. Yes, the singer of No one can judge me , but refused. Some survey had been done for Marcella Panucci, director general of Confindustria, and Simona Ercolani, the creator of the transmission challenges. But it has not got to the bottom. Maggioni, then. When the appointment is not official yet, the Prime Minister Matteo Renzi says he is coming the choice of an “authoritative journalist of Rai.” And then he adds: “I think it’s a good thing that in a board of directors there is an employee who is that company.” Renzi defends, in reality without too much heat, even the choices made for the rest of the board, “They have expertise and skills to justify their presence.”
But, beyond the judgment on the individual, what counts is the political juice of the whole affair: “Who today critics – said the prime minister – could approve the reform by not suffocate under thousands of amendments” . At this point, he adds, “we could not wait any longer, they chose parties because this involves the Gasparri law”.

And on the internet resurface the controversy over the participation of Maggioni at last year’s Bilderberg meeting, the international think tank which some regard as a kind of secret government of the world. The case had been raised right from the Five Star Movement and time RAI had defense judging the participation not only “legitimate” but also an “element of prestige for the company.”

In the evening appointment exceeds the rock of the supervisory committee. 38 of these were 29 votes in favor, five white boards, four against. To announce the abstention were the Movement 5 stars and Sel. To complete the new structure of RAI is still missing one last piece, indicating the new director general, except sensational surprises, it should be Antonio Campo Dall’Orto. Then, thanks to the box freed by Maggioni, is expected to report a full waltz for directors. Fans of the whole appointments can rest easy. There will be other episodes.
