Nel corso delle mie consuete sortite per il mondo dei bloggers ed in genere per la rete mi sono imbattuto in un certo numero di post e commenti interessanti.
Vorrei riproporvi un articolo di Umberto Eco del 2004 dal blog Voglio Scendere per introdurre un tema importante: quello del monopoly of television as a means of propaganda and indoctrination of the people, the true strength of the founding Berlusconi regime (or Veltrusconi?) of today.
is true, the influence of the Internet, newspapers, radio today is absolutely marginal. "say what they want" - seems to be the motto of Arcore - because their added weight is minimal, however. But then
do system to counter the regime monopolized the TV? What to do?
For now I leave the question open, pending return su in uno dei miei prossimi post. Certo è che noi bloggers dobbiamo trovare il modo di venire fuori da questo mondo digitale incompleto . Perché la società reale è la fuori , la società reale non è qui dentro.
Buona lettura del magnifico, quanto lungo articolo di Umberto Eco.
Le regole del potere nel regime mediatico
Umberto Eco, Repubblica gennaio 2004
"Una settimana fa ricorreva il mio compleanno e, con gli intimi venuti a festeggiarmi, ho rievocato il giorno della mia nascita. Benché dotato di eccellente memoria, quel momento non lo ricordo, ma ho potuto ricostruirlo attraverso i racconti che me ne facevano i miei genitori.
Pare dunque che, quando il ginecologo mi ha estratto dal ventre di mia madre, fatte tutte le cose che si debbono fare in tali casi, e presentatole il mirabile risultato delle sue doglie, abbia esclamato: "Guardi che occhi, sembra il Duce!". La mia famiglia non era fascista, così come non era antifascista - come tanta della piccola borghesia italiana prendeva la dittatura come un fatto meteorologico , se piove si esce con l'ombrello - ma certamente per un padre e per una madre sentirsi dire the newborn's eyes the Duce was a great feeling.
Now made skeptical by years inclined to believe that good gynecologist said the same thing to every mother and every father - I find myself in the mirror and looking rather like a grizzly that the Duce, but not matter. My were happy to learn that looked like the Duce. I wonder what it might mean a flatterer gynecologist today to a new mother. That the product of its gestation looks like Berlusconi? The plunged into a depressive state concern. For level playing field, I assume that no appreciable gynecologist would say to her, that her Appears as a chubby child Fassino, as Schifani nice, beautiful like La Russa, Bossi as intelligent or as fresh as Prodi. The gynecologist would circumspect rather than the infant's eyes are piercing Bruno Vespa, the air of witty Bonolis, the smile of Christian De Sica (and not say it is as beautiful as Boldi, Fantozzi as jaunty or - the case of females - sexy as Sconsolata). Each
age has its myths. The age in which he was born as a myth the statesman, that you are born today as the myth of 'Man of Television . With consueta cecità della cultura di sinistra , si è intesa l'affermazione di Berlusconi ( che i giornali non li legge nessuno mentre tutti vedono la televisione ) come l'ultima delle sue gaffes insultanti. Non lo era, era un atto di arroganza, ma non una stupidaggine. Mettendo insieme tutte le tirature dei giornali italiani si raggiunge una cifra abbastanza derisoria rispetto a quella di coloro che guardano solo la televisione. Calcolando inoltre che solo una parte della stampa italiana conduce ancora una critica del governo in carica, e che l'intera Television, Rai more Mediaset, has become the voice of power, Berlusconi had sacrosanct right. The problem is control the TV, and newspapers say what they want . This is a fact, like it or not we like it, and the data are done because these are independent of our preferences (you dead cat? Is dead, like it or not). I left these premises for suggest that in our time, where dictatorship has to be there, should be dictatorship media and politica . È quasi cinquant'anni che si scriveva che nel mondo contemporaneo, salvo alcuni remoti Paesi del terzo mondo, per fare un colpo di stato non era più necessario allineare carri armati ma bastava occupare le stazioni radiotelevisive (l'ultimo a non essersene accorto è Bush, leader terzomondista arrivato per sbaglio a governare un Paese ad alto tasso di sviluppo). Ora il teorema è dimostrato. Per cui è sbagliato dire che non si può parlare di "regime" berlusconiano perché la parola "regime" evoca il regime fascista, and the conditions in which we live does not have the characteristics of than two decades. A scheme is a form of government, not necessarily fascist. The fascism put the kids (and adults) in uniform, eliminating the freedom of the press and dissidents sent to confinement. The scheme is not Berlusconi's media so crude and antiquated. He knows that controlling the means of consent by checking the 'most pervasive information. For the rest it costs nothing to allow many newspapers (until they are able to purchase them) to disagree. What is send Biagi exile, perhaps to make a hero? Just do not let more speak on television. The difference between a regime "the fascist regime and a media is that in a fascist regime to the people knew that the newspapers and radio communicated only tissue government, and that you could listen to Radio London, penalty the jail. Precisely for this reason under fascism people distrusted newspapers and radio, listening to London radio at low volume, and gave confidence only to whisper the news when it arrived, mouth mouth, gossip. In a media regime where, say, ten percent of the population has access the opposition press, and the rest received news from a television subsidiary, on the one hand exists the conviction that dissent is accepted (" there are newspapers that speak against the government, the proof is that Berlusconi will always complaining, then there is freedom"), by ' Another effect of the fact that the produces television news (if I have news of a plane crash is real, so much so that I the sandals of the dead float, and it does not matter if your shoes are appropriate for a previous disaster, used as stock footage), makes it know and believe only what the television says. A television controlled by the power does not need to censor the news . Certainly, by slaves of power, also appear attempts at censorship, as the most recent (thankfully ex post, as they say those who say "attimino" and "pole position"), which is judged to unacceptable in a television broadcast can be speak ill of the Head of Government (forgetting that in a democratic regime is can and must speak ill of the head of government, otherwise it is dictatorial regime ). But these are only the most visible (and, if they were tragic, ludicrous ). The problem is that you can establish a media regime positively, having if to say everything. Just know how to say . If no television Fassino said what he thinks about this law, among the spectators rise to the suspicion that television silent something, because you know that somewhere there is opposition . The television media instead use a system that artifice rhetorical called "concession" . Take an example. On convenience to keep a dog are all 'about fifty fifty reasons for and reasons against. The reasons are that the pro dog is man's best friend , that can bark if they are thieves, that would be adored by children, etc. . The arguments against are that you must take it every day to do his needs, which costs in food and veterinarian, it is difficult to take it in travel and so on. Assuming that you wish to speak in favor of the dogs, the artifice of grant is: "Is it true that dogs are expensive, they represent a form of slavery, that you can not make the trip (and opponents of the dogs are conquered by our honesty), "but remember that is a beautiful company, beloved by children, so be careful against thieves." This would persuasive argument in favor of dogs. The dogs could concede that it is true that dogs are a lovely company, which are beloved of children, who defend us from thieves, but should follow the opposite argument, however that dogs are a slave, spending, a hindrance to travel.
And that would be persuasive argument against the dogs.
Television proceed in this way. If this law is discussed, it is states then give the floor immediately to the opposition, with all its arguments. Then follow the government's supporters who object to the objections. The result is persuasive obvious: the speaker is right for last .
follow closely all the news, and you will see that the strategy is this: never that after the announcement of the first project to follow the government support and after the objections of the opposition. Also on hand. A media regime not need to send to jail opponents . Reduces them to silence, rather than with the complaint voicing their reasons first. How do you react to a system media, as per reagirvi bisognerebbe avere quell'accesso ai media che il regime mediatico appunto controlla? Sino a che l'opposizione, in Italia, non saprà trovare una soluzione a questo problema e continuerà a dilettarsi di contrasti interni, Berlusconi sarà il vincitore, piaccia o non piaccia."
