09.01.2025 โ‡ข Fire in Los Angeles, Press in Rome
โŒจBiden's cancellation of his Italy trip due to Los Angeles wildfires dominated morning coverage, while media attention shifted to Meloni's annual press conference, where she addressed both domestic and international matters. The conference became a stage for three interconnected narratives: Cecilia Sala's release (with Meloni describing her call to Sala's mother as her "greatest emotion"), repeated denials of Starlink discussions with Musk, and statements about Trump's reliability regarding Ukraine.

By afternoon, pension reform controversy erupted as CGIL claimed INPS quietly extended retirement age, leading to quick official denials. Evening coverage centered on Zelensky's flash visit to Rome, meeting Meloni at Palazzo Chigi, marking a continuation of Italy's diplomatic push following the Mar-a-Lago meeting. Media treatment of these events revealed underlying tensions between government and opposition outlets, particularly regarding Musk versus Soros narratives.
