“New air”. That’s how L’Espresso headlines its next cover with a full-page photo of Elly Schlein, the new secretary of the Democratic Party. “Success in the primaries concludes the long march to the secretariat of the Democratic Party. But for Schlein the real challenge is now. Give soul to the party and identity to the house of the left” presents the weekly of the service dedicated to the former deputy governor of Emilia -Romagna.
“Bright, smiling and a little surprised, Elly Schlein is on the cover photo of the new issue of L’Espresso. A long service is dedicated to the new secretary of the Democratic Party who reconstructs the march that led Stefano Bonaccini’s opponent to overturn predictions about the votes and the challenges that now await her. And they do not only concern her party, but the role and image of the entire Italian left ”, anticipates the article that can be read on the L’Espresso website. The photo generated a lot of interaction on social media, with some criticizing the choice of photo. “A little less photoshop, thank you”, “Because she’s a woman, you have to make her pretty… I don’t think we care about these things for politicians who certainly don’t excel in beauty…”, “Article about how to use Photoshop?”, “There is a photo in this Photoshop”, some of the comments to the image, which left many speechless.
