Italian media protest at 'gagging law'

"The left-leaning La Repubblica ran an almost blank front page with only a tiny "post-it" style yellow memo reading: "The gagging law will deny citizens the right to be informed".
Corriere della Sera called it "a dark day" for justice and L'Unita, paper of the largest opposition party, ran its headline with typeface that was used when Benito Mussolini ran Italy and controlled the media."
