In dieci anni di reality italiani era stata sicuramente la figura migliore uscita dal Grande Fratello. Pietro Taricone era conosciuto con il suo nome e cognome, lusso concesso a pochi superstiti del reality. Una volta uscito dalla “casa” aveva deciso di concedersi a pochi studiati eventi facendo crescere sempre di più la curiosità nei suoi confronti. ‘O guerriero, come si era auto soprannominato durante il reality, non è riuscito a vincere la battaglia più importante e ieri è morto dopo un atterraggio mal riuscito con il paracadute.

There is a world economic crisis, there is Greece crisis, which showed to other European countries the precarious nature of our currency, there is a deficit to be repayed and there is a record of unemployment, with companies that every day fire new employees. And Premier Silvio Berlusconi found the time to criticize the TV show 'Talk to me'.

It was May 1992 when Giovanni Falcone blown up on the highway from Punta Raisi Airport to Palermo, near Capaci. Few months later another magistrate who had fought Mafia together with Falcone, Paolo Borsellino, was killed on his way to visit his mother. After almost 18 years, just a few young people know who these judges were. To them it's addressed a cartoon shown on preview in Rapallo

It took almost 11 years and 100 complaints but in the end Europa 7 has won and, from June, it will begin its broadcasts nationwide. "It was almost a miracle," said Francesco Di Stefano (at the left), the entrepreneur who in 1999 had obtained state grant to launch a national TV, but not the frequency, that were occupied by Retequattro, one of Silvio Berlusconi's televisions.

Only a month and in Italy there will be the regional elections. Tv news are talking, in these days, about the two rejected lists, one in Lombardia and one in Lazio, that are going to make many new problems for the PDL (Berlusconi's party). While all this is happening, the RAI board of directors approved the proposal of general director Masi. So, until the end of the vote (April) there won't be, anymore, the tv shows Porta a Porta, Annozero, L'ultima Parola and Ballarò.

Un cartone animato di solito ha un lieto fine perché è destinato ai bambini e il cattivo, se c’è, deve sempre rientrare nella stessa sceneggiatura: prima o poi diventa buono o non riesce comunque a fare del male. Nulla di nuovo, quindi. Però se il cattivo è un matador, se di fronte ha un toro, se si trova in un’arena con la folla che strepita, allora il duro deve essere cattivo fino in fondo, altrimenti sono polemiche.

L'esito dell'ultimo Festival di Sanremo, con il pubblico e l'orchestra che fischiavano e protestavano per la scelta di tre finalisti considerati di scarsa qualità e l'esclusione dalle prime posizione delle canzoni considerate migliori è la perfetta rappresentazione dell'Italia di oggi. Un paese dove i peggiori trionfano e si dice che sono stati scelti dalla volontà popolare, anche se nessuno dice come si è espressa questa sacrosanta volontà popolare.

The beginning of the year, in the television sector, it is not the best for Silvio Berlusconi. Because on 10th January has started the strike of Videotime, RTI and industrial electronics (all companies in the Mediaset group) workers to protest against the transfer of the business unit covering the compartment of hairdressers and makeup artists. For the first time in the history of this industrial group, 3800 workers were on strike.

At the end the ministry has given the green light, because he could not do otherwise: by this afternoon, Sky will broadcast with a new free digital terrestrial channel, Sky "Cielo" (Heaven). Deputy Minister for Communications, Paolo Romani, made the announcement during a conference. Murdoch can celebrate the victory of this new battle with Berlusconi-Mediaset, but around the corner there are other dangers lurking.

It's hard times for Rupert Murdoch: the daily struggle led by Australian magnate against the Italian Prime Minister, today sees Murdoch as a loser. This because in any way you want to see it, the digital terrestrial TV (which just recently saw the shutdown of analogue signal in Campania) is simply a way to eliminate Sky from the Italian habits.
