Angelucci’s conservative media empire and the party machinery of
Fratelli d’Italia are portrayed as two interconnected pillars of a right-wing system that rewards loyalty, manages public money and contracts, and shapes narratives around church, state, and culture in
Italy. Personnel shifts at
Il Giornale, the rise of figures like
Tommaso Cerno and
Nico Spuntoni, and the web of contracts and festivals tied to
Martin Avaro,
Atreju,
CasaPound,
Forza Nuova,
Francesco Acquaroli,
Francesco Lollobrigida, and
Giorgia Meloni reveal a broader pattern in which media influence, public funds, and far-right networks reinforce one another while formal leadership structures remain largely unchanged pending a crucial justice referendum.
