All Music Italia's opinion
The declarations of Elodieespecially those addressed to the press room, are at least reckless. Before pointing the finger, it would be appropriate to inquire or, at least, receive an adequate briefing from your press office.
The numbers are clear: the press and the radio jury have always rewarded Giorgiabut it was the televoting and the so -called sovereign audience that penalized it.
This controversy, therefore, is based more on the emotional perception that is part of the trend on the facts, inaugurated last, to attack the press without making distinctions.
