Viewers Drooling Over Anchorwoman’s Daring Outfit
It was just another day at the office. So far, Costanza was having a wonderful day. Everything was running smoothly, or so she thought. She only realized that something was wrong when her producer frantically tried to get her attention.
She frowned at his gestures and hand movements, he was confusing her. She tried to stay as professional as she possibly could, but she was horriedied when she realized what he was pointing at. That was when panic set in.
Vanity Comes Standard
It’s no secret that in the world of Italian media, beauty is a highly prized asset. Whether it’s for game shows, talk shows, lifestyle shows, or sporting shows, physically attractive hosts are commonplace.
Italy is one of the fashion capitals of the world so it’s only natural that its television shows reflect the conventional beauty standards that society never seems to get enough of in the age of social media. There is however one field where these practices are sometimes criticized.
A Touchy Issue
Many people believe that journalism is a field where objectivity should be upheld above superficial considerations. It’s easy to see why. The nature of news reporting often entails dealing with the most serious social and political issues of the day.
In a world beset by fake news, ideally, it becomes more important to focus on facts and ethical standards than anything else. Unfortunately, the modern world doesn’t always seem to work this way and the reason is simple.
Business Is Business
The sad truth is that modern-day journalism, especially in the era of corporate media, relies on ratings more than anything else. The world of television has always been a superficial arena. Italian media is no exception.
Scroll through Italian network shows and chances are, you’ll find a beautiful woman or two on every one. When ratings matter, beautiful people naturally attract more attention and boost ratings, even on news shows.
With this context in mind, this is where the unfortunate story of one such beautiful journalist can begin.
It Was In Her Blood
Although born in Belgium, Costanza Calabrese is Italian and was educated at the University of Rome. As her father, Pietro Calabrese, was a highly accomplished journalist, news reporting has always been a key part of Costanza’s life.
She also happened to be a beautiful woman but this never detracted from her competence and aptitude for the field. After forging a successful career in journalism herself, Costanza never expected to one day face humiliation while doing the job she loved so much.
