SUMMARY OF THE DAILY FACT ON THE ALAN FRIEDMAN CASE:

Unanimous waves of politics for the sentence of Alan Friedman who, in the episode of Uno Mattina on Rai 1 on January 19, defined the former first lady Melania Trump "an escort". Today, the American journalist, interviewed in L'Aria that pulls up La7, apologized talking about "an unhappy joke and in bad taste", but in the meantime the story will end in the Rai Vigilanza where the director of Rai was summoned for January 26 1 Stefano Coletta. Among the themes at the center of the hearing there will be the Friedman case, but also the “safety” chapter of the Sanremo Festival and the lack of space for in-depth analysis of the network in cases such as that of the assault on Capitol Hill.

Meanwhile, despite the apologies, the case has provoked criticism from the entire parliamentary arc, from right to left. "Surreal that Friedman did not immediately apologize for the serious words he spoke, waiting for the controversy to then give his version", Fdi leader Giorgia Meloni wrote on Twitter complaining that "no champion of feminism has intervened". But in reality the condemnations were unanimous. Shortly after the deputy, in fact, the former speaker of the Chamber Laura Boldrini spoke: "Excessive and offensive language, which affects mainly women, is an evil of this time that must be fought," he wrote on Twitter. For the 5-star Movement, Senator Alessandra Maiorino, group leader in the commission of inquiry into Femicide, spoke: "As usual", she said, "to attack the powerful man on duty, the woman is attacked with heavy offenses. side. Now it's Alan Friedman's turn. This is a cowardly game that women are tired of undergoing. Unfortunately, this curtain was aired on public TV, without anyone in the studio reacting appropriately ”.

For the Democratic Party, Valeria Fedeli, leader of the dem group in the Supervisory Commission, spoke, who accused the conductors Marco Frittella and Monica Giandotti: "The giggles of conductors and conductors with sexist jokes are not compatible with the public service, with the role and the Rai information function, ”Fedeli said. "There is a duty to seriousness, respect and responsibility that must always be exercised". And he added: “If the management of Rai Uno thinks that a note is enough to say that the journalist Monica Giandotti has stigmatized Friedman's words, however late and after having greeted them with a laugh, evidently they are not clear about the seriousness of the episode. To restore dignity and authority to Rai information, concrete choices and precise measures are needed. Enough chatter! ".

Condemnation also by the Rai board member Rita Borioni, who wrote on Facebook: “When a man is considered a racist he is defined as a racist, when a woman is considered a racist, he is spoken of as an escort. This is sinister sexism. I find it disgusting. Respect is due to people, without distinction of sex, race, language, religion, political opinion, personal and social conditions. Otherwise, all statements of principle are just talk. Otherwise, getting the glitter for Kamala Harris, first female vice president at the White House , is just hypocrisy ”.
