Maria Grazia Mazzola continues with her coverage of events in Malta marking a year since the killing of Daphne Caruana Galizia. Watch her feature in yesterday's news bulletin here.
This is the front page of today's The Independent. From their report: "'It appears that absolutely nothing is happening. When we asked for updates, the response from the prosecutor [who is also the attorney general] was to mock us publicly, saying that they cannot provide a ‘running commentary’ – that was the name of my [...]
Leeuwarder Courant is the old newspaper in the Netherlands still in circulation and it's focused in Friesland and its capital Leeuwarden the other European Capital of Culture 2018. The newspaper today published this feature a year after the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia. The translation below is a Google Translate job so may not be [...]
I attended a meeting of Italian and overseas journalists accredited in Rome marking one year since the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia. This is a report shown on La Repubblica. The meeting was hosted at the conference room of the Associazione Stampa Straniera in Rome and was also briefed by Maria Grazia Mazzola of Rai [...]
German National Television marked the year since the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia with this short. Below is an English translation provided by a volunteer who helps out with this website and unlike me speaks German. Andrew Caruana Galizia's life changed completely a year ago. Nothing is the same as it used to be. He [...]
Surprisingly and exceptionally the office of the Prime Minister has decided to answer questions from an international press organisation. It hasn't done so for months now even telling some journalists they would consider answering their questions if those did not include any reference to Daphne Caruana Galizia. Of course, it's all the formalistic lip service [...]
Reporters without Borders, the Committee to Protect Journalists, 60 per Daphne, the European Centre for Press and Media Freedom and PEN International laid flowers and candles and left messages in front of the court building in memory of Daphne Caruana Galizia and demanding justice for her as a journalist killed in the line of duty. [...]
Here's something Andre Carbonaro posted on his Facebook wall 6 days ago.
Malta Today’s story on David Casa can’t have been published on the 14th of October by some coincidence. The choice of date serves the interests of those whose hearts are warmed by the bad weather today because the anniversary of Daphne Caruana Galizia’s killing is not being marked. An anonymous former staffer who worked for [...]
From my article in The Sunday Times today: "Sure enough the moment that One TV report about my collaboration in a campaign against Malta came up, the Labour Party’s vigilantes got to work. My Facebook page was flooded by messages of trolls, most not anonymous, recommending my exile, my arrest, my punishment, even my suicide. [...]
#occupyjustice and manueldelia.com announce that due to stormy weather the March for Truth and Justice planned for this afternoon is being postponed to Tuesday 16th October 2018, starting at 7:00 pm in front of Wembley Store, Valletta. We would like to confirm that the rest of the program of events for the 15th and 16th [...]
When Owen Bonnici lies he looks like a silly schoolboy. When the Minister of Justice lies it is a shocking embarrassment and yet more evidence that our institutions have been hijacked by banana republic tyrants. In a government statement yesterday Owen Bonnici said he had asked the Council of Europe’s Venice Commission for advice on [...]
Henley & Partners is now branding Maltese citizenship as a status symbol to be ticked off by the stupidly rich who “have a yacht and two aeroplanes”. Do you know many people who have a yacht and two aeroplanes? Although to be fair the real question ought to be: do you want to know anyone [...]
Fr Joe Borg interviewed John Sweeney this morning ahead of the BBC journalist's Freedom Lecture on Monday. He was told by a listener that he's being "fed wrong information". And John Sweeney patiently explained the difference between impartiality, which is a professional obligation and being able to tell right from wrong. Listen to the interview [...]
This was broadcast yesterday on Rai Uno's weekly news in-depth magazine TV7. The feature is by Maria Grazia Mazzola. https://www.facebook.com/inviataspecialeRai/videos/2058696170840837/
When in Rome yesterday I met again La Repubblica's Carlo Bonini, part of the Daphne Project and author of the 'Daphne' movie shown in an event organised by this website a few months ago. Through Feltrinelli he has just published his book on the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia that tells the story on what [...]
On behalf of my colleagues organising the Truth and Justice campaign, I would like to thank Steve Hili for his show last Sunday. And I would like to thank LovinMalta for feature the event on their site. Here are Tim Diacono's notes from the evening. Satire is a bit of a lost trade here in [...]
Consider this heading in a The Malta Independent report from a couple of days ago: “Temporary ITS Luqa Campus inaugurated”. “Temporary” suggests the place is a stop-gap solution, something on the way to a more permanent solution. An urgent fix that was needed until something better props up. And that would be an accurate impression. [...]
When Keith Arnaud, the police inspector in the investigation on who killed Daphne Caruana Galizia, was interrogating Alfred Degiorgio he took il-Fulu through the devastating evidence they had to prove he killed the journalist. Keith Arnaud showed Alfred Degiorgio the police had all the answers. Records of SIM card purchases, the movements of phones, records [...]
