In his weekly column for Oggi, Fazio said the right felt “legitimised” by its thumping September general election win “to behave like the owner of the public sphere with little regard for the public weal (wellbeing) and with a boundless greed”.
Fazio, who has now signed a four-year deal with Discovery Channel, said however that he would not indulge in “victimism”, which he said he detested”, and acknowledged that “the narrative has changed”.
Anti-mafia writer Roberto Saviano, a frequent guest on Fazio’s 20-year-long Che Tempo Che Fa show, said “Fazio did not leave Rai, he was kicked out” and thanked the presenter for letting him make landmark monologues, including some in which he denounced mafia infiltration of the northern political and economic worlds, highlighted the work of late Russian anti-Putin journalist Anna Politkovskaja, and that of right-to-die activists Min and Piero Welby.
