Economist magazine launches new Berlusconi attack

ROME, July 31 — Britain's Economist magazine fired a fresh broadside against Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi on Thursday, challenging him to answer a barrage of questions about his business dealings over the past 30 years.

...
''The Economist is...concerned about Mr Berlusconi both as an outrage against the Italian people and their judicial system, and as Europe's most extreme case of the abuse by a capitalist of the democracy within which he lives and operates,'' the magazine wrote in an editorial.
The Economist said its dossier on Berlusconi, which touches on some of the main graft charges brought against him in recent years, was backed up by more than 8,000 pages of documentation.
...
The centre-right administration almost collapsed this week when the justice minister tried to use the controversial new law to block an investigation into Berlusconi. Threatened by a coalition revolt, the minister was forced to reverse his order.

The Dossier will go online tomorrow- let's see.

:bounce: for all the anti fascist articles around the world!

forgot to post the link.
It is there now, but not very interesting. The Interesting part will happen tomorrow - download the dossier before it is sued offline.

And we hear this bluster just after the Economist-backed PAM becomes a breaking scandal.

I got a free copy of their mag. a while ago. Just in time for them to send me (and I'm sure many others) their "A Case For War" issue, and for Bush/Blair to invade Iraq.
