(ANSA) - ROME, SEPTEMBER 18 - "I was the victim of unprecedented defamation. My name, combined with the incitement and justification of violence against women. All those who have become protagonists of this scandalous falsehood will answer in court. I cannot accept one such a completely unjustified and superficial aggression. I await the apologies of the representatives of the institutions who have not documented themselves on the facts before issuing a sentence via the web. I will continue to ask questions, even uncomfortable, because it is my job. But I will not accept defamations, from whatever side they have come. a crime and I believe in justice ". This is Barbara Palombelli's reply on social media after the controversy sparked by her words on femicides during the episode of Lo Sportello diForum su Rete4.
The journalist yesterday also intervened in the Fourth Grade, again on Ret4, to clarify her thoughts: "I apologize if someone hearing that sentence thought that I could be an accomplice of committing a crime, but mine was a different speech" he said. "I have always been on the front line - she added - against violence against women. My personal story says so, I also brought my children the object of violence to my home. Being messed with the people who justify violence caused me great malaise. We explained how to defuse anger, but no anger can justify a murder ".
"There is no justification for a femicide - Palombelli went on to the Fourth Grade - but we must all take a step forward and understand how to defuse violence before it becomes a femicide. We must speak to prevent behavior. If anyone has thought of mounting a media storm against me, I I'm ready to answer with my story ". (HANDLE).
