Osmosis Ideas

A few years ago, Giovanni Sartori wrote in Corriere that "a lie we all feel. But where the TV is truly free the lies have short legs, while we have long legs. "

Here's an example: last Saturday the chairman of Mediaset Confalonieri Giulivo rejoicing because "Rete4 go ahead: it has its authorization to transmit, and the European Court of Justice had simply told the Council of State that protect and judge whether Europa7 was entitled to a compensation.

I knew even those who have made a batracomiomachia in Parliament.

Rete4 was never in doubt, the press has not informed well.

Di Pietro has ridden a case that could not be in terms that he said. "

Balle space.

Rete4 has always been in doubt since the Consulta twice in 1994 and 2002, determined that can not transmit sull'analogico land and must be released or go on TV and in 1999 he lost the award even though no Government has never had the courage to deactivate, allowing it to continue even in "transitional phase" with provisional ratings that on January 31 the European Court has judged illegal by the law.

Therefore void to the right of Europa7 to have not only the grant (regularly won in'99), but the frequency exercising. The already are often quite Saturday, reading from the statement of the Council of State.

Confalonieri preferred cantarsela and suonarsela to reassure shareholders.

But Monday, the reopening of the stock market, the title Mediaset has collapsed by 1.8 points.

You can lie to newspapers and tg, but not the market. And yesterday the publication of the judgments of the State Council cut the head of the bull.

1) The use of Europa7 against the approval of a transitional Rete4 was rejected not because Rete4 is right (or rather, is defined more times net surplus' to those with the right to broadcast), but only because the action came out of Europa7 time.
2) The frequencies if the current cornering holders at the time of the Far West legislature, and then allowed ex post with laws illegal.
3) Rete4 el'Avvocatura State's incredible ally on behalf of Ministers Gasparri and Gentiloni, said that the state has not issued any concession Europa7: The Council of State says that the award is and must be accompanied by the relevant frequencies ( "Legitimate interest") so far denied with a "dilatory determination illegitimate."
It is for the government, that is a master of Berlusconi Rete4, assignment, applying the ruling and those of the Council of State. Such distrust the government to respond that the grant would have expired in 2005: otherwise recognize that until 2005 Europa7 had always trampled rights. In December, the State Council will see that the government has done and quantify the damage in these Europa7 to 9 years.

Warning now that could well exceed half a billion requested by the 3 Di Stefano.

And who should pay them? Berlusconi? No: Pantalone.
