Centre-right Forza Italia (FI)
leader Silvio Berlusconi on Thursday rejected anti-establishment
5-Star Movement (M5S) leader Luigi Di Maio's contention that his
TV stations were biased in his favour, allegedly highlighting a
conflict of interests. Describing Di Maio's charge as "very
serious", Berlusconi said "there is no commercial possibility"
that media company Mediaset "can take someone's side because it
would eliminate the others from its audience". The media
magnate, who owns Italy's three largest commercial TV stations,
said "I complain that (Mediaset) is always with everyone and a
bit less with us, so as not to be a biased television".
