Internet and the Church, a closer link. The preachers of the "good news" for excellence can not help but wonder which side is the future of news. The Pope speaks of "gift to humanity" and opens a dedicated channel on YouTube. And the archbishop of Milan, Dionigi Tettamanzi, who is massively clicked on YouTube, launches new portal of the diocese www.chiesadimilano.it.
"People are tired of reading and seeing more and topical issues presented in the key of the clash, controversy, scandal, fear, alarm - warns Tettamanzi -. I speak with knowledge of the facts: sometimes I am a witness. I see myself thrown into controversy and confrontation that, in fact, do not exist. "
"For now we are using the Internet as if dragging the car with the ass," is the provocation of Gianni Riotta, director of Tg1, a conference sponsored by the diocese of Milan. "The real revolution will happen when the content will change." And on new content for Riotta, we are at a crossroads: we must choose between darkness and light, in the words of the Gospel of John. Or you decide that truth is relative and something that everyone can build their own (and this on the Internet there are countless cases), or you can look at reality with equanimity, convinced that truth exists and that there is a difference between good and evil.
Ferruccio De Bortoli, the editor of Il Sole 24 Ore, optimistic words about the future of journalism: "The information provided is not a necessary evil, it is maintenance of democracy, citing Einaudi, need to know to decide." The task of the journalist is, therefore, contribute to "raise public awareness and public ethics."
