Javier Milei faces declining digital influence and media tensions
President Javier Milei is experiencing a significant decline in digital influence and social media engagement in Argentina. Analysts report a consistent drop in online mentions and interactions, which experts attribute to a lack of thematic empathy with public concerns, communication strategy failures, and various political scandals.
This digital fatigue coincides with shifts in the government's communication apparatus. Santiago Oría has assumed control of government social media networks, effectively displacing Santiago Caputo from the communications area.
Furthermore, the administration faces criticism regarding its relationship with the press. Reports indicate a pattern of aggressive rhetoric and insults directed at journalists by the President, raising concerns among human rights organizations about potential attempts to silence critical media through intimidation and legal pressure.
