Earthquake among the majority parties, and many discontent in the Five Star Movement, for the first appointments to the Rai newspapers of the Fuortes era.

The leader of the M5s Giuseppe Conte lights the fuse, announcing: "We will no longer go to the public service networks".

In particular, the choice to bring Monica Maggioni to the chair of Tg1 in place of Giuseppe Carboni is in the sights, but it is the overall picture that arouses strong disappointment in the former premier, also for the role played in the affair at Palazzo Chigi.

The names arrived yesterday morning, after a battle made up of crossed vetoes between political forces. And just when the game seemed about to be postponed, the CEO Carlo Fuortes broke the delay and sent the proposals to the board of directors.

Maggioni beat the competition from outsiders, as well as Simona Sala, appreciated by both Pd and M5s, then diverted to Tg3. The choice of the former Rai president was not particularly liked by the Contiana wing of M5s, also because the outgoing director Giuseppe Carboni was temporarily left without a position: he should get the "day time" direction instead of Franco Di Mare, who could remain at the helm of Rai3 alone until retirement expected in a few months.

ALL NAMES - Mario Orfeo leaving Tg3 will be at the helm of the "Deepening" direction. Gennaro Sangiuliano at Tg2 and Alessandro Casarin at Tgr will be confirmed at the helm of the "Deepening" direction. the place for Rainews to Paolo Petrecca, pushed by the Brothers of Italy who asked for compensation after the ouster of his representative on the board of directors.

In Raisport, the CEO is Alessandra De Stefano in place of Auro Bulbarelli, who is also still out of office.

"Fuortes does not free Rai from politics but has chosen to deprive a political force such as the M5s: we are at the degeneration of the system and for this reason the M5s will no longer make its voice heard on public service channels", thunders the M5s president Giuseppe Conte which denounces the old logic of subdivision.

An unacceptable position, say from Lega and Forza Italia, on the part of those who have parceled out during the course of his government.

"A year ago he sent tissue papers and images to Tg1, today he announces that they will no longer be on TV", Matteo Renzi's attack.

In the meantime, the CEO is ready to defend the appointments to the board of directors scheduled for today in Naples, thanks also to the choice of having rewarded only internal figures, and of having brought a woman with an important curriculum to the helm of Tg1 for the first time.
