Buona la puttanesca

Il titolo scelto dal Guardian è sufficientemente curioso da meritare lettura. Non dice nulla di nuovo – è vero. Però è d’ effetto.

Mr Cicchitto went on to name those whom he alleged were responsible for that campaign: the newspaper La Repubblica, the news magazine L’espresso, Marco Travaglio, the author of a book about Mr Berlusconi’s alleged links with the mafia, both opposition parties, and certain criminal prosecutors. That’s quite a list, and to name a journalist as having anything to do with an assault by a deranged man, either directly or indirectly, is a tried and tested technique from a darker period of European history.[...]

[...]Instead of seeking political scapegoats, the 73-year-old media tycoon should ask himself why 250,000 Italians flocked to a No Berlusconi Day in Rome earlier this month. In the rest of Europe and beyond, there are demonstrations against policies or governments. In Italy, people demonstrate against a prime minister not for what he represents, but for who he is. For good reason.[...]

[...]Far from humouring Mr Berlusconi’s attention-grabbing antics in meetings like the G20 in London earlier this year, world leaders should start distancing themselves from such a man.

C’hanno ragione c’hanno
