Signature strike at Il Sole 24 ore in the newspaper of August 31st and on the website for the whole day of August 31st. Reason: the protest against the interview with Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, two pages signed by Maria Latella, collaborator of the Confindustria newspaper. A responsibility that directly affects the Director Fabio Tamburini. “Yesterday we learned with dismay - says the editorial committee's statement addressed to colleagues on 30 August - of the two-page interview with the prime minister who opened the newspaper today, signed by an external collaborator”. COLOR PHOTO The interview is featured on the front page, under the heading, with color photos of Meloni. Title: “Relations with China will remain solid. Banks, we do not defend positional income on profits."
It is the first time ever - continues the Cdr - that an event of this DY Leads type has occurred: "We have an entire editorial team made up of colleagues who follow politics and a colleague, in particular, who deals with the presidency of the Council, yet we prefer to rely on an outsider". In the statement published in the newspaper of 31 August, the Cdr writes that "the director motivated this choice by taking refuge behind the principle, which is also fundamental for us, of the priority to be given to those who bring news to the newspaper. In this case, however, there was no news being discussed, but an institutional interview of the prime minister with our newspaper." “SERIOUS PRECEDENT” The precedent is therefore defined as “very serious”. The Cdr strongly reiterates the need for the newspaper, in this case, to be represented by the director or colleague of the Sole 24 Ore who follows the presidency of the Council on a daily basis.
Our work is based on the specificity of skills and it is unacceptable that the relationship with the sources could be compromised by similar choices." “Unacceptable” for the Cdr is the fact that all collaborators are not treated in the same way: “If some have the opportunity to interview the prime minister, others have their salaries cut. A few weeks ago an email from the editorial secretariat communicated to our collaborators that starting from 10 August 'the amount paid to you' will be reduced by 20 percent". POSITIVE HALF-YEARLY The cut arrived in the same days as a half-yearly report closed with a positive net result of 5.4 million. For this reason, the signature strike was proclaimed (collaborators are exempt).
