Repubblica’s double fool
The Repubblica media bubble directed by Maurizio Molinari who plays it and sings it, even when it is denied. Damato's Scratches
THE EUROPEAN FIGURE OF THE REPUBBLICA
A few lines – in any case as little as possible – to tell you about the state of information in Italy, at least that printed in newspapers which, not surprisingly, now sell so little that the newsstands close. Indeed, they are abandoned by the owners who don't even have the money to remove them. Or, if they remain open, they ask for subsidies from the government of the day, including the one in office which seems oriented towards satisfying them in some way. Maybe, just to finance its demolition.
EXAMS NEVER END FOR REPUBLIC…
No later than yesterday, the second or third Italian newspaper by so-called circulation – first for the presumption of providing exclusive and quality news – had a headline on the entire front page that Italy was " under examination " by the EU with a swarm of inspectors sent everywhere, even in the Ministry of Justice and surrounding areas. I am naturally writing about La Repubblica , directed by Maurizio Molinari and owned for now above all by the best-known nephew of the well-known but late Gianni Agnelli, "the lawyer" who counted more in his time than the current Prime Minister and perhaps even the President of the Republic : the real one, not paper.
THE REPUBLIC OMITS THE EU DENIAL
The European Union has denied this . But there is not a headline, a headline, a line about this denial on the front page of today's La Repubblica . Nothing. Attention has shifted elsewhere. On the "march of the right" against Rai to conquer all its floors and basements, whether real or metaphorical. Starting naturally with the "dying horse" that presides over the national headquarters in Rome, with the foresight of the sculptor who had imagined the destiny of the company.
THE EU DENIAL IN NEWSPAPER AND FREE
Unlike Repubblica , the European denial was featured on the front page, with considerable visibility, by the Giornale which belonged to Indro Montanelli, then to the Berlusconi family and now above all to the Angelucci family .
Less evident but clearly visible was the denial also given by Libero , another Angelucci family newspaper. Silence instead, barring personal oversights, on Tempo di Roma, from the same publishing chain.
ZERO EVEN ON THE CORRIERE DELLA SERA
And all the other newspapers, starting with the largest, the Corriere della Sera ? Zero headlines or lines on the front page too, I don't know if more out of respect for the self-declared Republic or to cover the hole – as we journalists call it – that they thought they had unjustly taken the day before. Poor press, poor information, poor profession for those who have been practicing it since they still had shorts.
