The President of the Republic’s best wishes to our newspaper for its 130th anniversary: ”Through different eras, difficult years, social revolutions and technological changes, the “Rosea” has made the daily story a narrative heritage delivered to the whole country”
130 years is an extraordinary achievement for a newspaper that has been able to be an authoritative voice of Italian sport. In these decades ‘La Gazzetta dello Sport’ has told about emotions, feats that have become legendary, victories and defeats. He took snapshots that remained in everyone’s memory. Going through different eras, difficult years, social revolutions and technological changes, ‘Rosea’ has made the daily story a narrative heritage delivered to the whole country. In recent weeks you have narrated the Olympic victories and once again transformed the medals of our athletes into collective memory.
a daily ritual
—
The work carried out by the editorial team is extraordinary, aware of working in a newspaper with a long tradition, bearer of emotions and custodian of memories that have become timeless. Some of your first pages were unforgettable, highlighting the stories of champions who made history in many sports: from football to motorcycling, from skiing to basketball, from cycling to swimming, from volleyball to fencing and many others. Generations of readers have browsed the Gazzetta, finding in each issue an effective synthesis between information and passion, also providing a basis for analysis and endless family discussions, such as at the stadium or in the bar. A daily ritual that you have been able to renew, speaking to the new generations of enthusiasts in perfect continuity with what Eugenio Costamagna wrote in 1896, in the first issue of the Gazzetta: “To deal with sport you need to feel able to move with the times, prevent, arrive”. Happy 130th birthday Gazzetta and best wishes to the entire editorial team.
