12 December 2019 "Many will remember a very refined title that I dedicated over two years ago to the newspaper Libero," The hot potato ", and an article by Felt, seasoned with the most vulgar, sexist insults directed at my person: no right to report exercised neither of political criticism ... simply vomiting words ". The mayor of Rome, Virginia Raggi , wrote this on Fb, announcing that the Gup of Catania "accepting the request of the prosecutor's office, ordered the indictment for director Vittorio Feltri" for aggravated defamation ".

"I had announced that I would have sued the newspaper and its perpetrators for defamation. I did - explained the mayor of Rays on Facebook - and today I want to give you an update: I was a civil party and the Gup of Catania yesterday, accepting the power of attorney , ordered the indictment for the director Vittorio Feltri and for the manager responsible Pietro Senaldi. They will go to trial to answer for aggravated defamation ".

"It is an important first result. Not so much for me, but for all the women and all the men who do not resign themselves to a male-dominated climate, to a rhetoric made up of insults or squalid irony. And my thoughts go to all those, women and men, who have suffered violence favored by that very climate. Pseudo-intellectuals, politicians and some journalists are the megaphone of the worst clichés, hoping to sell a few copies or win a few more votes, even go so far as to tarnish the memory of institutional figures such as Nilde Iotti or insulting Emilian and Romagna women. Hot potatoes and incandescent tuber wrote to me ... I don't forget ... let's see how this story ends in the Court ", he concludes.

"Personally, with the 'hot potato' I have nothing to do with it and I don't think I have failed to respect the mayor. I wrote a piece where I pointed out some contradictions, without attacks on a personal level." To tell the Adnkronos Vittorio Feltri after the mayor of Rome, Virginia Raggi, with a post on Facebook, commented on the indictment for Feltri himself and for the director in charge Pietro Senaldi for the title of the newspaper Libero "La patata bollente" and a article.

"I cannot speak of a title that I did not do - underlines Felt - and I cannot answer it myself. I often get complaints as if I were the director in charge."
