La Russa: ‘I will bring a civil action against La7 over the bomb allegations’

Turin, 28 May (LaPresse) – "I have never brought a single criminal complaint against a journalist on my own behalf. But I would like to start today by taking civil legal action, perhaps not so much against journalists, but against La7, for example. On a La7 programme, DiMartedì, a gentleman said, “I know the La Russa brothers well; in the 1970s they would hold rallies and immediately afterwards go down to hand out bombs to the young people”. And I will sue not this gentleman, whom I don’t even know, but the television station.” This was stated by Senate President Ignazio La Russa, a guest on tonight’s episode of Dritto e rovescio on Rete4.
