Hundreds of people are paying homage to Maurizio Costanzo, the journalist and conductor who died two days ago in Rome at the age of 84.

The chapelle ardente was set up in the Campidoglio. A coming and going of well-known faces and ordinary citizens who send messages of condolence to his wife, Maria De Filippi.

A gesture that represents the norm but which is causing widespread controversy due to someone's behavior.

The presenter was approached by some fans who asked her to take a photo together, a "selfie" . She didn't withdraw, always hidden behind her black sunglasses, the ones she used yesterday too to hide her pain and tears. She lent herself to the photo, right in front of her husband's coffin. Perhaps not to be rude, perhaps because it was overshadowed by mourning, but the images began to circulate on social networks, unleashing waves of criticism : "People don't even know what respect is", "it's unworthy even to have thought of doing such a thing" , “ a disgusting reality ” are some of the comments.
