Who has benefited from the reorganization of television
JOHN SARTORI
Our Prime Minister has finally admitted, abroad, that, yes, its majority has launched his three laws pro domo, tailor-made for him: the law on international requests (in the sense obstacles), the law Cirami (to facilitate the movement of processes) and now the so-called award-Maccanico Schifani (which provides him, in essence, an immunity for life). But I fear that this list is incomplete. The law on false accounting - declassified in purely administrative infringement - is more convenient to him than any other of the tax fraudster. And then they are in the finishing straight, the Gasparri law on the reorganization of television and, last but not least, the Frattini law on conflict of interest. Berlusconi defended himself, admitting the three peccadilloes "concerned" that he admitted, pointing out that its majority has also launched a 250 by "disinterested." Three or even six to 250 is at least a draw, no? In my opinion, no. Why the Gasparri Law is sufficient in itself to bring Berlusconi ahead. Not to mention the deadly Frattini Law, which will speak not just be put back on track.
All agree that the world of media must be placed by a "law system" (it says so, I repeat). Must be placed on the back, and that is more than the buffer Mammi (1990) and Maccanico (1997), and also the judgments of the Court Constitution, which among other things require Retequattro Mediaset to transfer (from July 1999 to work in the homeland of the law, without proper permission) on satellite. It should also be placed on future memory, because the digital revolution is coming and we are facing.
So law system. But these things always end in glory. Which means that in Italy, today, all the psalms in the home end Berlusconi. In fact, the Gasparri Law excels in placing the interests of His Broadcasting, as the giving away three things: 1) the prejudice Retequattro 2) allows it to increase its share of advertising, 3) allows it to invade more than ever ' Books and newspapers. The gimmick that launches this shower of benefits is to change the basis of calculation. Maccanico law established a ceiling of 30 percent of the market for each operator. The Gasparri is down to 20 percent this roof, but (here is the trick) to dramatically widen the basket of resources which are to be determined. To illustrate, 30% of one hundred and thirty, but 20% of two hundred and forty. So Berlusconi is held all can grow and share in advertising more choking competition.
not enough. Mammi law to curb 'media convergence' to ban those who owned three television networks to own newspapers. Gasparri with this prohibition will fall. So Berlusconi can buy its competitors, at least one major publishing group. He replied that it is also possible for others to buy him. We laugh together. I've always known it is the biggest fish that eat smaller fish. Fininvest-Mediaset capitalization (wholesale) 10 billion euro. The others put together come to just over 3 billion, could not eat certain Berlusconi. If the pass
Gasparri - is budgeted for next week - will go from good to better to his broadcasting, and from bad to worse for the freedom to know and say.
