The Lazio regional prosecutor of the Court of Auditors has launched an investigation into the Open to Wonder campaign: the goal is to understand why the Venus influencer disappeared from social media. The specter swirling around is that of fiscal damage.

After the abrupt interruption, with social activities at the pole since last June 27, another tile is falling on the Open to Wonder campaign, launched by the Ministry of Tourism and Enit to promote tourism: the Venus influencer has in fact become the object of attention by the Lazio prosecutor of the Corte dei Conti, Pio Silvestri, who, as reported by the newspaper Repubblica, has opened a file on the campaign. In fact, the body that oversees public expenditures wants to understand why the Venus has disappeared from the radar: it seems that the Corte dei Conti has moved after various articles published in newspapers that, around mid-August, asked in chorus to the Ministry of Tourism the reason for this absence of activity, right in the middle of the tourist season.

The ministry will therefore have to give explanations to the Court of Auditors: the specter is that of fiscal damage. Tourism Minister Daniela Santanchè had explained that the disappearance from social media was a “strategic choice” to shift traffic to other streams (however, it was not explained for what reason such a choice would be strategic) and that the Venus would return to prominence in the second part of the summer. In fact, a few days ago (on August 22), the Ministry of Tourism, in collaboration with the Italian Volleyball Federation, made a video depicting the reigning European champion Azzurri posing with a T-shirt depicting the Venus influencer Open to Wonder. Video that on the campaign’s Instagram account, needless to say, was not posted. Another granola for the ministry’s campaign and another affair to watch closely.
