#2The Economist has often badmouthed Italy. The title is way too sensationalist. The comment section also highlights this ethnic bias. I will never forget their insulting cover from years ago: http://static.fanpage.it/socialmediafanpage/wp-content/uploa.... Just clickbaits and provocations.

To be honest, that cover looks like a perfectly fair and accurate assessment of both men.

I really do not have context about Italy and Economist, but this issue has been predicted and talked about by others.

You're saying that cover is insulting to clowns?
Having lived most of the past 15 years in Italy, I think a lot of the criticism is justified.

It doesn't matter. The facts are the facts and the Italian banking system is in big trouble.

What do you think the likelihood is of a run on Italian banks? I'm curious if you're average Italian citizen is aware of what a supposed bail in would subject depositors to (anything above a certain euro amount would be wiped out, such that occurred in Cyprus as one of the links in this thread notes).

> highlights this ethnic bias
They've done that to a lot of British & American politicians.
They've been harder on Trump than they were on Berlusconi. And face it, both Berlusconi and Grillo were professional "pagliacci".
