19.07.2026The Day Bologna's Handcuffed Death Overshadowed the World Cup Final

The day began with the aftermath of the World Cup third-place match, but editorial focus shifted sharply by afternoon to a police intervention in Bologna. A 43-year-old man died while handcuffed, with video showing him pleading 'Aiuto, basta' before losing consciousness. The footage, published by multiple outlets, drove sustained coverage and demands for justice from the victim's sister. This story eclipsed the ongoing Roggero case, which had dominated previous days, and relegated the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina to secondary status. The final, attended by Trump and featuring an elaborate halftime show, was covered live but did not regain editorial primacy until Spain's extra-time victory late at night. US-Iran tensions and the murder of journalist Luca Esposito in Eboli received intermittent attention but remained peripheral.

I numeri del primo semestre segnano incrementi a due cifre delle insolvenze. Molto spesso è l'attivismo dell'Agenzia delle Entrate russa a provocarle. Il Cremlino minimizza, Putin prepara una legge di semplificazioni amministrative per le imprese. Poca roba per un'economia avvitata. Che mostra il fianco debole anche nel settore assicurativo
