Biography
Fede was born in Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto, Sicily.
He started his career in the Italian public broadcasting company (RAI) in the early 1950s, and went on to become one of the most popular faces in its news dominant TV market share in Italy. Fede during the direction since 1991 to 2012 of TG4, a news programme on Rete 4, owned by Italian tycoon and former premier Silvio Berlusconi,[1] has been often accused of excessive partisanship for Berlusconi in his news management.
Fede is, at present, indicted for favouring prostitution of a minor in the framework of the so-called Rubygate scandal.
