Sergio Staino, veteran
cartoonist and fairly new editor of Democratic Party (PD) daily
l'Unità, on Wednesday appealed to PD leader and former premier
Matteo Renzi to step in and try to halt mass sackings at the
lossmaking former Communist newspaper.
"He's seen everyone under the sun...he might find time to
schedule a meeting with me," said Staino, who lamented an
alleged willful denial of the historic daily's problems.
"They wouldn't even let our sellers into the Leopolda", he
said, referring to Renzi's annual brainstorming event in the
ex-premier's native Florence.
The PD has a minority stake in l'Unita', once the organ of
the mighty Italian Communist Party (PCI).
