1yQuoting from today’s obituary by Jason Horowitz and Rachel Donadio in today’s NY Times: "To Italians, Mr. Berlusconi was constant entertainment — both comic and tragic, with more than a touch of off-color material — until they booed him off the stage. But he kept coming back. To economists, he was the man who helped drive the Italian economy into the ground. To political scientists, he represented a bold new experiment in television’s impact on voters. And to tabloid reporters, he was a delicious fount of scandal, gaffes, ribald insults and sexual escapades… His often outrageous, norm-warping and personally sensational approach to public life, which became known as Berlusconism, made him the most influential Italian politician since Mussolini. He transformed the country and offered a different template for a leader, one that would have echoes in Donald J. Trump and beyond.”

1yIt's easy to be a great communicator if you own media, a football team, and a sit in the Parlament. It is easier when you are doing it in illegality and conflicts of interests. May he had been a good self-made man, but he ruined the image of our Country, making it ridiculous and with no justice.
