Didn't know that, classic Italian bar morning scene that (coffee/cappuccino + brioche/croissant + the gazzetta that's always left on the counter by the bar owners) :lolol: I might have to try and find some clips of that program now, I'm curious
Yep, it's because at the time (1898) it was cheaper to print on pink than on white. The pink jersey in the Giro d'Italia was made of that colour in honor of the Gazzetta itself. Over recent years it's become an absolutely woeful sports paper unfortunately, but it's still the most important one...
