Giancarlo Magalli was convicted of aggravated defamation
.
The presenter, for years a well-known TV face at lunchtime with the transmission I Facts Yours, will have to compensate the damage to the showgirl Adriana Volpe.
This was decided by the Court of Milan for the interview with the weekly Chi in November 2017 in which the host talked about the Weinstein and Brizzi cases about the media hype for alleged sexual favors in the entertainment world.
La Volpe, who became a civil party, sued Magalli, deeming it an implicit allusion to his career
.
Four years later, the judges agreed with the presenter and actress, assisted by lawyers Michele Briamonte, Nicola Menardo and Stefania Nubile of Studio Grande Stevens, establishing that Magalli pay her 25 thousand euros, already paid as a provisional, and pay a fine of 14 thousand euros.
"Given that between 5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 the Fox will flood the web with press releases regarding my exemplary sentence for an interview in which I talked about Me Too and did not mention it at all, I wanted to anticipate it by specifying that the judge gave a fine (which I don't even have to pay), a provisional fee (which I don't have to pay) and legal fees (which I will pay). That is before I say I was sentenced to life in prison or 10 million in compensation, "he writes on Facebook. author of famous television broadcasts, such as Non Stop and Pronto, Raffaella?, which despite the sentence does not seem to want to withdraw from its reasons. "Incidentally, I, the journalist who had interviewed me and tried to get me to talk about the Fox (acquitted) and the editor-in-chief of the newspaper whohad published - increases the dose -. For him the lawsuit was withdrawn. And who are we talking about? But of Alfonso Signorini who coincidentally is the one Adriana has been working with ever since. Coincidences, eh… ".

The controversy therefore seems destined to continue
.
After all, there has been no good blood between the two for some time, who have never made any secret of their mutual antipathy.
Even in front of the cameras, as when in an episode of I Fatti tua Magalli he gave a "pain in the ass" to the Fox, who had revealed his age live.
"You have tried for many years to make me shut up, but you will not succeed", says the showgirl replying to a post by Magalli during an episode of the show EVERY morning on TV8 in July 2020. "You show that you have no respect for people and women. - he added - and I will not allow you to do this ".
