Right of information: a struggle began in 1993
"loud silence" to say no to the silence of the state. The freedom of the press belongs to the citizens
E 'since 1993, the days of clean hands, that the political class will periodically try to rein in the courts and gag the press. Each time the reaction, before the journalists and the public then, has managed to avert the worst damage.
E 'to avoid the worst parts of the draft law on wiretapping Alfano become state law that journalists are called upon to strike and the day after tomorrow. A strike that takes place with the stated aim of protecting the right of citizens to be informed in a correct, complete and timely manner.
Reporters have always been at the forefront to thwart attempts to stifle press freedom in 1993 at the time of the Bill of Gargani, in 2005 compared to the Roberto Castelli, in 2006 compared to Clemente Mastella. Since June 2008, are fighting against the Bill Alfano demonstrations and leafleting throughout Italy, conferences, debates, books, and bicycles parades
. At first alone then, so convinced, with Fnsi and Association of Journalists. Recently, the battle has seen take the field the so-called "civil society" that has filled the Piazza del Popolo in October, Piazza Navona and the web last week. Even the newspapers since last May 24 when the Fnsi held a meeting with the directors, have discovered the importance of the story.
Already last year, just this time, a strike was planned against the Alfano Bill, returned by the intervention of President Napolitano. In this period the government and majority have stubbornly maintained the tenets of the bill, the Senate have introduced even worse.
Who wants to emphasize these topics may do so freely on their heads, maybe all day.
To bring home to the majority and the government that the bill can not pass Alfano is now necessary to strike: a day of "noisy silence," as it is called, to make citizens understand what it would mean the silence imposed by state law
