Berlusconi Cheerleader
On 16 November 2011, following the resignation of Berlusconi, RAI1 didn't report the crowd jubilation at Berlusconi's departure, but instead portrayed it as an end of an era. To punctuate the respectful coverage of the resignation, Minzolini appeared in the main program to regret the departure of a great man, and to chastize those who cheered the event.
