Merry Christmas and Happy Liberation!



[ad_1]

Dear friends of the Done,

this Christmas is the twelfth that we celebrate together. And it certainly is the hardest, indeed dramatic. We would never have imagined, a year ago, what happened in this damn 2020 and that still forces us to semi-close waiting for San Vaccino. the COVID-19 He put us all to the test, a very hard test, as people, as citizens, as journalists, as readers. And that test, without forgetting for a minute the mourning of 70 thousand families Italian, we can say that we have overcome it. So much so that we look towards 2021 full of hopes for a Liberation, a Post-War and a Reconstruction that will not return us to the old vices of before, but that will allow us to change things for the better. As individuals. Like a nation. And, in our own way, as a newspaper and as a multimedia group that unites the newspaper, the web, the publishing house. Paper first, the monthly Fq Millennium and the platform TvLoft.

The virus has monopolized almost all of our attention and energy, forcing us to reconvert, inform and update ourselves in a very short time on fronts unknown to us such as medicine, virology, epidemiology, genetics, to offer to our readers, Internet users and viewers. information that is up to the new challenges. Your answer was a tremendous reward for our efforts. The fact “Paper” (but also with its new offer of daily online newsletters) has obtained thousands of copies in kiosks, digitally and by subscription, gaining new signatures and new readers, in contrast to the trend of the publishing market, also thanks to ‘ higher concentration / approval of the other editorial groups. But mostly thanks to a new newspaper model, more compact, legible and exclusive, as well as graphically renewed from the end of May. The site has multiplied its unique users. TvLoft programs in Nove – from Agreements and disagreements a Are the winds a The confession to all the others, they obtained results close to those of the large generalist networks. The works of Paper First made boom in kiosks and bookstores.

Perhaps never like this year “Il Fatto” in all its forms made an opinion and dictated his agenda, unmasking the media bubbles and lies: the “Lombardy model”, the differentiated autonomy of the Regions, the good government of the center-right in the North, the soothing effects of public funds on private healthcare, cuts to health and education, the urgency of an amnesty or a pardon or other empty prisons against the alleged “Covid Holocaust” in prisons, billions for companies and the freedom to fire to create jobs, the “competition” for science infused by the old parties and their “technical” and so on, that the Covid emergency has miserably collapsed in the eyes first of a few and then of almost all.

As the rest of the information was homologated, going from Unique thought for unique magazine, the counterpoint of Done increasingly asserted itself as a thorn in the side of those powerful powers that count far more than the governments in office and that have in fact been unleashed with unprecedented violence to overthrow Count-2, not loyal enough to your orders and therefore anomalous and Martian, to return Italy to the old mangers. And knock out one of the few surviving free voices in the information world complaints me quotes civilians for hurt hoping to shut our mouths or at least reduce us to softer advice. Suffice it to mention, among the many, the 18 lawsuits brought against us by the Unnamed for a total of 2 million euros; the tragicomic of the president of the Senate Maria Elisabetta Alberti Casellati for 150 thousand euros; and Eni’s for the beauty of 5 million. Also in this case, our community reacted with affection and participation, with an avalanche of messages and letters of solidarity from hundreds of readers, willing to car buggy or even and donate your compensation to help us with the bad parade.

It is the confirmation of what we have been telling ourselves since our birth certificate on September 23, 2009: without the help and participation of great community of readersWe would never make it And it’s always good to know that you have so many friends who care about the survival of the our free voice. A voice that will also be heard in 2021 to accompany Liberation, the postwar period and Reconstruction with proposals, encouragement and criticism so that nobody tries to imagine this new stage as a return to our worst past or as a false change and Gattopardesco, as if the emergence of the Covid was just a parenthesis to close to fall back into the mistakes of before. Instead, we think it was a painful and sad road test of what was wrong and a formidable opportunity to get rid of it for good: that’s enough public money for private healthcare, that’s enough conflicts of interest between politics, business, information and health, that’s enough cuts to essential public services such as hospitals, schools, research, culture and justice, that’s enough regional anarchy bets on autonomy and federalism, that’s enough with our health entrusted to the whims and interests of twenty mostly arrogant and incompetent “governors”.

In short, in this new phase we Done we will continue fighting by our principles against the conflicts of interest, the excessive power of the lobbies, the editorial concentrations, the impunity and privileges of the ruling classes, the social and fiscal inequalities that condemn the poor and honest for retaining the rich and thieves. In short: for the respect and full application of the Constitution Republican, even at the expense, to maintain its spirit and adapt its tools to changing times, to update it at some specific point.

As always, we have posted many facts that I would never have left without him Done. Some were “ladle”, that’s news dug up in preview by our good reporters. Others were facts known to all, but nobody dared or wanted or could publish, giving us exclusivity due to conflicts of interest that continue to haunt the world of Italian information. Others were hidden, unspoken, censored or false truths from the lies of the mainstream media, which we quickly debunk with our “fact-checking.”

We were the first to point the finger at the responsibilities of the Lombardy Region in the failure to close in the red zone of They get up me Nembro in Val Seriana after the outbreak of the pandemic. We gave Dr. Attilio Galmozzi di Crema, the first Lombard doctor who dared to denounce the mismanagement of the pandemic in his region since March 4. We were the first to talk about those garbage monuments that are the “Bertolaso ​​hospitals” at the Milan Fair and Civitanova Marche. We anticipate it scandalous contract entrusted by the Region headed by Attilio Fontana to the office of Fontana’s brother-in-law. We have probed the “15 percent system” created by the League in the last twenty years to be paid for by public administrators divided into ASL, health departments, hospitals, banks, and Rai. We found out in investigative papers. Consip the elements that led the investigating judge to order the “distracted” prosecutors to redo the investigations into Titian Renzi me Alfredo Romeo and revoke the file request in the indictment request. We have unveiled some altars in the great sewer of theEni and the other side of the coin of the “Palamara case”, which goes far beyond the responsibilities of a single “deviant” magistrate. We have reported, always in happy solitude, the incredible inconsistencies of the trial to Virginia Raggi, later also acquitted on appeal. We reveal the second corruption investigation of the former undersecretary of the Northern League Armando Siri.

We have seen our historic battle for electoral success reduction in the number of parliamentarians, which will continue in the new year to obtain a reduction in their salaries and an electoral law that will give us the power to elect our representatives in the Chambers against blocked lists. We have given our small contribution to avoid the triumph (and “full powers”) of Salvini & C. in Emilia romagna, Puglia me Tuscany. We won the battle for the government to finally institute wives for him tax evaders and expelled me Benetton of the management of the Italian highways after the shameful breaches of the Morandi bridge concession and the maintenance of arteries and viaducts. And so. We have also made mistakes, as it is inevitable and humane, by apologizing and rectifying them promptly, without having another teachers that you readers.

We ask readers, whenever they have ideas, advice, suggestions, comments, criticisms and disagreements to report, that Write to us– We will try to answer all of them and, as far as possible, follow your instructions. No letter falls on deaf ears: compatible with the time of tyrant, we respond privately to all and publish your most interesting contributions (for the daily column “I say it to Done“, Write us, possibly within 1500 characters, a letter to Daily fact, via di Sant’Erasmo 2, 00184 – Rome, or an email to the secretariat @ ilfattoquotidiano.is oa [email protected], indicating the name of the journalist to whom it is addressed).

We say it every year and repeat it for the twelfth time: the war against information abstention is important at least as much as that of electoral abstention. Help us “attract” more and more people to read Done: continue buying it everyday, not just occasionally, and, for those who already do, subscribing again this year or for the first time in Done and “present” or give it to friends and acquaintances.

Without you, the fact I would not exist. But without the fact, many of you would be less informed. That is, less free.

Thank you very much to all. And, on behalf of us and our editors, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year with Daily fact!

Marco Travaglio, Antonio Padellaro and Peter Gomez
