Hoping that solidarity will be concrete, lasting and without distinction and will also help many other journalists who are under threat

OSSIGENO, October 17, 2025 – Ossigeno expresses its solidarity and closeness to Sigfrido Ranucci and extends a warm embrace, encouraging him to continue his courageous work as an investigative journalist.

Such a violent and brazen warning against a journalist already protected by law enforcement,” declared Alberto Spampinato, president of Ossigeno per l’informazione, “is a challenge to democratic legality; it cannot go unpunished, as unfortunately have been other serious threats addressed to journalists, many times in this country.

Ossigeno hopes that the unanimous solidarity expressed toward him today will be concrete, lasting, and unbiased, and will help to shed public attention on the threats to thousands of other journalists who are subjected to intimidation, warnings, and more or less serious, unmentioned and unsupported public support, leaving them to fend for themselves.

We must not allow this if we want to live in a society where journalism can shed light on controversial and unwelcome events for those in power and business. ASP
