Illum fil-Qorti Pierre Portelli xehed<\/a> u stqarr li kien bis-sa\u0127\u0127a ta’ de\u010bi\u017cjoni li kien \u0127a hu li l-mezzi tax-xandir tal-PN naqsu li jxandru r-risposta tieg\u0127i g\u0127al storja li kienu xandru fis-sens li dan il-blog kien \u0127are\u0121 bi storja li tg\u0127id li l-PN ivvota favur li\u0121i dwar il-kannabis<\/a>. Jien ma kontx ktibt f’dan is-sens. Huma rrifjutaw li jxandru rettifika. U jien da\u0127\u0127althom il-Qorti biex ji\u0121u m\u0121ieg\u0127la jxandru r-rettifika li tlabt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pierre Portelli ma \u010ba\u0127adx li dak li xxandar mill-istazzjon tat-televi\u017cjoni li jmexxi ma kienx korrett. Anzi ammetta li kien bis-sa\u0127\u0127a ta’ de\u010bi\u017cjoni li \u0127a hu li ma xxandritx risposta tieg\u0127i skond il-li\u0121i g\u0127al ra\u0121unijiet li, fost affarijiet o\u0127ra, m’humiex rileventi g\u0127all-ka\u017c. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

M’jinix nikteb hawn biex niddefendi l-ka\u017c tieg\u0127i. Dak bi \u0127siebni nag\u0127mlu fil-qorti. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Madankollu huwa \u010bar daqs il-kristall li Pierre Portelli ma kienx qed jimmira lejn il-ka\u017c li hemm pendenti fil-qorti: f’mo\u0127\u0127u kellu biss it-tir li jipprova jiskreditani. M’g\u0127andniex xi ng\u0127idu, l-akbar arma li jista’ jkollu \u0121urnalist hi l-kredibilt\u00e0 u Pierre Portelli u l-PN mejtin biex i\u010ba\u0127\u0127duni minnha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Din hi r-ra\u0121uni li tkellem dwar dak li kien se\u0127\u0127 aktar minn sena qabel se\u0127\u0127 l-in\u010bident dwar ix-xandir tal-istorja dwar il-li\u0121i tal-kannabis – \u017cmien li fih jien ma kontx \u0121urnalist, hu ma kienx imexxi x-xandir tal-PN u Adrian Delia ma kienx il-Kap tal-PN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dak li stqarr Pierre Portelli huwa nofs verita’, li hi ag\u0127ar minn gidba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jien qatt ma kxift li kont jien li ktibt artikli bl-Ingli\u017c biex jidhru f’isem Adrian Delia fit-Times of Malta<\/em> u fil-Malta Independen<\/em>t g\u0127al waqt il-kampanja g\u0127at-tmexxija tal-PN. Ma kxiftx dan kollu g\u0127aliex min jag\u0127milha ta’ ghost writer<\/em> m’g\u0127andu qatt jipprova jie\u0127u l-mertu g\u0127al dak li jinkiteb u li jixxandar f’isem klijent. Issa li Pierre Portelli g\u0127o\u0121bu jikxef din l-istorja g\u0127al ra\u0121unijiet li se nitkellem dwarhom aktar tard, in\u0127oss li dak li kien klijent tieg\u0127i – ji\u0121ifieri Adrian Delia \u2013 issa feta\u0127li l-bibien biex ng\u0127id dak li fil-fatt kien \u0121ara’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta Pierre Portelli kien avvi\u010binani fi\u017c-\u017cmien meta Adrian Delia kien \u0127abbar li kien bi \u0127siebu jikkontesta l-elezzjoni g\u0127al Kap tal-PN, lil Adrian Delia bil-kemm kont nafu. I\u017cda lil Pierre Portelli kont nafu sew. Kif qal huwa stess, konna studenti flimkien fl-Universita’ 25 sena ilu. U kif qal ukoll, madwar tliet snin ilu talabni na\u010b\u010betta l-kariga ta’ editur ta’ The Malta Independent on Sunday<\/em>. Dak i\u017c-\u017cmien jien kont impjegat u kont nit\u0127allas mal-erba’ darbiet aktar mill-paga li kien offrieli hu u – g\u0127alkemm \u0127assejtni onorat bl-offerta – g\u0127idtlu li ma kontx interessat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

F’\u0120unju 2017 re\u0121a’ avvi\u010binani. Din id-darba mhux biex nag\u0127milha ta’ ghost writer <\/em> g\u0127al Adrian Delia. Qalli li kien tal-fehma li jien kien imissni ner\u0121a’ lura g\u0127all-\u0127ajja politika professjonali issa li tal-PN kien se jkollhom “Mod \u0120did” u li xtaqni n\u0127adem g\u0127al Adrian Delia. Lil Pierre Portelli we\u0121ibtu billi g\u0127idlu li kont kuntent b’dak li kont qed nag\u0127mel f’\u0127ajti u li ma xtaqtx ner\u0121a’ lura g\u0127all-\u0127ajja fil-politika. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aktar tard talabni biex nag\u0127mliha ta’ ghost writer g\u0127all-kandidat preferit tieg\u0127u u qalli wkoll li ma setg\u0127ax i\u0127allasni. Min\u0127abba r-relazzjoni ta’ \u0127biberija ta’ bejnietna, a\u010b\u010bettajt li nag\u0127millu pja\u010bir. Pierre Portelli deherlu li kien qieg\u0127ed jappo\u0121\u0121ja \u017ciemel tajjeb u jien fdajt fil-\u0121udizzju tieg\u0127u. Dak i\u017c-\u017cmien ma stajtx ng\u0127arbel sew lil Adrian Delia. Mal-medda ta\u017c-\u017cmien, i\u017cda, bdejt ng\u0127arblu aktar mill-vi\u010bin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meta Pierre Portelli kien talabni biex intih daqqa t’id, dan il-blog kien g\u0127adu jitwieled u ftit kienu dawk li kienu g\u0127adhom jiftakruni. L-a\u0127\u0127ar li kont fil-\u0127ajja pubblika kien fl-2013 u sal-2017 kont ilni li g\u0127osfort mix-xena. Kont \u0127dimt fl-Afrika u kien biss f’\u0120unju 2017 li bdejt niktab f’dan il-blog tlieta jew erba’ darbiet fil-\u0121img\u0127a. Ma kontx g\u0127adni sirt \u0121urnalist: kont bejjieg\u0127 tas-software<\/em> u awtur ta’ artikli miktubin b’delizzju u ming\u0127ajr \u0127las.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ma rajt xejn \u0127a\u017cin li nag\u0127mel pja\u010bir lil \u0127abib. Fil-kampanja b’kollox ktibt madwar nofs tu\u017c\u017cana artikli. Pierre Portelli jrid jag\u0127tik x’tifhem li jien kelli b’xi mod x’naqsam mar-retorika ta’ Adrian Delia dwar il-“bi\u010b\u010ba blogger”. Ma dan jien ma kelli x’naqsam xejn. L-artikli li dehru f’isem Adrian Delia u li xxandru fit-Times of Malta<\/em> u fil-Malta Independent<\/em> kont ktibthom jien bil-mod kreattiv tieg\u0127i. Sibt ru\u0127i nikteb dwar il-politika tal-partit. Ma kontx naf f’hiex kienet tikkonsisti l-vi\u017cjoni ta’ Adrian Delia jew x’programm kellu u mal-medda ta\u017c-\u017cmien kelli nsir naf li la kellu vi\u017cjoni u lanqas programm u, jien u nikteb, bdejt nag\u0127mel tabirru\u0127i x’kont nag\u0127mel li kieku kont fi\u017c-\u017carbun tieg\u0127u.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Din hi dik li tissejja\u0127 “kitba kreattiva”: il-kelma “ghost” tag\u0127tik \u0127jiel tal-iskop kollu wara kitba b\u0127al din. G\u0127alkemm in\u0127oss li ftit huma dawk li jiskantaw meta jisimg\u0127u min ig\u0127id li Adrian Delia m’huwiex kapa\u010bi li jikteb artikli mimlijin ideat b\u0127al dawn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Illum Pierre Portelli stqarr li jien kittieb tajjeb. \u010aertament m’g\u0127andix xi lawrja fil-letteratura. I\u017cda paragunat ma’ Adrian Delia u ma’ Pierre Portelli, nistqarr li g\u0127andi l-\u0127iliet fil-kitba. Huma m’humiex kapa\u010bi jiktbu g\u0127aliex m’humiex kapa\u010bi li ja\u0127sbu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pierre Portelli ming\u0127alih li llum \u0127are\u0121 bl-istorja politika tas-seklu. \u010aertament, l-udjenza li xtaq jindirizza ma tikkonsistix fit-trolls<\/em> u fis-segwa\u010bi ta’ Adrian Delia u bi kliemu kisser g\u0127al kollox l-akku\u017ci li spiss jag\u0127mluli li jien g\u0127andi xi nostal\u0121ija g\u0127all-influwenza u g\u0127as-sa\u0127\u0127a li suppost kelli fi \u017cmien Simon Busuttil, liema influwenza u sa\u0127\u0127a suppost spi\u010b\u010batli meta Adrian Delia “g\u0127amel tindifa” tal-imbarazz li suppost sab fid-Dar \u010aentrali. Ironikament, il-fatti huma bil-maqlub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Issa qed jippruvaw idawwruha li jien kont idde\u010bidejt li nsir \u0121urnalista full-time<\/em> g\u0127aliex, meta Pierre Portelli kien talabni nkompli nikteb wara li l-impenn tieg\u0127u kont g\u0127amiltu \u0121ie fi tmiemu hekk kif intemmet il-kampanja, kont g\u0127idtlu li \u0127assejt li kont g\u0127amiltlu bi\u017c\u017cejjed “pja\u010biri”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hekk kif kienet g\u0127addejja l-kampanja, bdejt in\u0127ossni dejjem aktar skomdu nikteb l-artikli biex jixxandru b\u0127allikieku kien kitibhom Adrian Delia. Fil-fatt kont ktibt f’dan is-sens kemm fil-blog tieg\u0127i kif ukoll fis-Sunday Times of Malta.<\/em> Lil Pierre Portelli sa\u0127ansitra kont g\u0127itlu f’wi\u010b\u010bu li, kemm il-darba kelli niddie\u010biedi li ner\u0121a’ lura g\u0127ax-xog\u0127ol politiku, lanqas kienet tg\u0127addili minn mo\u0127\u0127i li na\u0127dem g\u0127al Adrian Delia g\u0127aliex deherli li dan kien libes \u017carbun li ma ji\u0121i\u0127x. U ma qg\u0127adtx lura milli niffirma ismi kull meta esprimejt ru\u0127i pubblikament dwar Adrian Delia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daphne Caruana Galizia kienet di\u0121a’ xammet li kont ktibt xi artikli b\u0127ala ghost writer<\/em> g\u0127al Adrian Delia u waqt il-kampanja staqsietni biex nikkonferma li hekk kont qed nag\u0127mel. Hi qatt ma kitbet xejn dwar dak li kienet taf g\u0127ax kienet taf daqsi u aktar minni ghost writer <\/em>x’ifisser. Madankollu waqt il-kampanja kienet kitbet li l-blog tieg\u0127i kienet tikkunsidrah b\u0127ala g\u0127ajn ta’ ra\u0121uni f’nofs il-\u0121enn kollu li kien qed jitkebbes minn Adrian Delia u minn Pierre Portelli<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ix-xog\u0127ol li nbeda minn Pierre Portelli fil-qorti dalg\u0127odu tkompla mit-trolls <\/em>tieg\u0127u. Araw ftit kif il-Vi\u010bi Kap Robert Arrigo \u0121ibed l-istess konklu\u017cjoni li jrid li ti\u0121bed int: li jien idde\u010bidejt li nsir \u0121urnalista full-time<\/em> g\u0127ax Adrian Delia ma riedx i\u0127allasni biex inkun dispost nappo\u0121\u0121jah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Id-dati ta’ meta se\u0127\u0127ew l-affarijiet qalbuhom. F’din il-blog kif ukoll fis- Sunday Times of Malta<\/em> (tistg\u0127u ti\u010b\u010bekkjaw kollox – hemm qeg\u0127din, iswed fl-abjad) kont ktibt – qabel<\/strong> \u0121ie elett b\u0127ala kap – li l-g\u0127a\u017cla ta’ Adrian Delia ma kinitx g\u0127a\u017cla tajba. Pierre Portelli kien re\u0121a’ talabni nibda’ nikteb wara<\/strong> li \u0121ie elett Adrian Delia, ji\u0121ifieri fi\u017c-\u017cmien meta kont g\u0127idtlu li kont onorajt il-ftehim li kelli mieg\u0127u u li ma stajtx inkompli nikteb ming\u0127ajr ma nit\u0127allas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dan mhux bi\u017c\u017cejjed. Ta\u0127sbu li huwa kredibbli li jien kont tlaqt minn impjieg full-<\/em> time<\/em> biex insir \u0121urnalist mhux im\u0127allas u dan g\u0127ar-ra\u0121uni li Adrian Delia ma riedx i\u0127allas mi\u017cerja ta Eur120 g\u0127all-kitba ta’ artiklu darba fix-xahar? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ta\u0127sbu li din kienet l-esperjenza li suppost bidlitli l-boxxla ta’ \u0127ajjti? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jew inkella dan kollu \u0121ara’ g\u0127aliex fi\u017c-\u017cmien meta Pierre Portelli – mhux Manuel Delia – kien qed jag\u0127milha ta’ ghost writer<\/em> g\u0127al Adrian Delia spi\u010b\u010bat inqatlet Daphne Caruana Galizia – l-istess mara li kienet \u0121iet img\u0127ajjra “bi\u010b\u010ba blogger”? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naf \u010bert li ftit huma dawk li se jifhmu kif jien tlaqt impjieg biex nag\u0127mel dak li qed nag\u0127mel illum. Ta\u0127sbu li je\u017cisti xi pajji\u017c demokratiku ie\u0127or fid-dinja fejn lill-\u0121urnalisti u lill-attivisti tas-so\u010bjeta’ \u010bivili jkollhom jiffa\u010b\u010bjaw dawn l-affarijiet? Ta\u0127sbu li je\u017cistu \u0121urnalisti ta’ fehma Laburista li ja\u0127dmu ma’ The Guardian<\/em> li jkollhom jiffa\u010b\u010bjaw dawn il-kummiedji dan kollu g\u0127aliex jidhrilhom li Jeremy Corbyn ma jiswiex karlin?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

U \u017cgur li le. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0126adt il-\u017cmien tieg\u0127i biex nikteb din it-twe\u0121iba Pierre Portelli u lilu u lit-trolls<\/em> tieg\u0127u tajthom bi\u017c\u017cejjed \u017cmien biex jil\u0127qu lill-udjenzi tag\u0127hom. Skond Pierre Portelli, dawk li jirrispettaw lil din il-website<\/em> issa ng\u0127ataw i\u010b-\u010bans li jiddubitaw g\u0127andhomx jibqg\u0127u jirrispettawha u da\u0127\u0127alha f’rasu li dawn kollha bil-mod il-mod issa se jibdew jag\u0127tu l-appo\u0121\u0121 tag\u0127hom lil Adrian Delia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dalg\u0127odu jien m’attendejtx il-Qorti g\u0127aliex ninsab imsiefer mal-familja. U ma kontx bi \u0127siebni ninterrompi l-ikla li kont qed niekol g\u0127al wi\u010b\u010b Pierre Portelli. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jista’ jkun li l-lixka li g\u0127amel Pierre Portelli jkun hemm min jiblag\u0127ha. Pa\u010benzja. Jien ng\u0127id li g\u0127andi ng\u0127id u ma nistenniex l-applawsi. Ma tlift ebda vot. M’g\u0127andniex xi ng\u0127idu, mhux b\u0127al Adrian Delia li sal-biera\u0127 ma kellu ebda vot u llum qed jipprova jakkwista xi ftit minnhom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u0120ieli noqg\u0127od na\u0127seb u nistaqsi lili nnifsi kemm dan kollu hu vallpena u x’kien \u0121ieg\u0127elni naqbad it-triq li twassalni biex ng\u0127id li g\u0127andi ng\u0127id bil-liberta’ f’pajji\u017c fejn dawk li kapa\u010bi li ja\u0127sbu b’mo\u0127\u0127hom jispi\u010b\u010baw vittmi ta’ dawk li ma jafux ja\u0127sbu b’mo\u0127\u0127hom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Min jaf, forsi b’persuni b’mentalita’ tat-tfal b\u0127al Adrian Delia u Pierre Portelli li jaspiraw g\u0127al karigi li suppost jimtlew minn nies maturi, ikun jaqbel g\u0127all-futur ta’ wliedi jekk ne\u0127lishom minn dan il-\u0121enn u nitlaq minn Malta biex Pierre Portelli jkollu aktar fejn jimra\u0127. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
