Mario Calabresi resigns from Chora Media to run for Milan mayor
Journalist Mario Calabresi has resigned from his roles as editorial director of Chora Media and chairman of Be Water Content, the group encompassing Chora and Will Media. This move is widely interpreted as a preliminary step toward an official candidacy for the mayoralty of Milan.
Calabresi, a former director of La Stampa and Repubblica, expressed his gratitude for his six years at Chora, describing it as an extraordinary adventure. His potential entry into the political race could shift the dynamics within both the center-left and center-right coalitions. While an official announcement is pending, his departure from operational media roles is seen as a way to avoid potential conflicts of interest as he prepares for the upcoming municipal elections.
