Roberta Bruzzone criticizes Salvo Sottile and Francesca Bugamelli

Criminologist Roberta Bruzzone has sparked controversy on Instagram by launching a sharp critique against television host Salvo Sottile and content creator Francesca Bugamelli, known as Bugalalla.

In a series of posts, Bruzzone questioned Sottile’s decision to invite Bugamelli onto the program ‘Ore 14’. She used metaphors involving ventriloquism and puppets to criticize the creator’s television presence, specifically targeting her tendency to read from a screen. Bruzzone also mentioned Mirko Zeppellini, Bugamelli’s partner, in her critique of the duo’s televised interactions.

Additionally, Bruzzone addressed social media conspiracy theories regarding her academic history. She contested claims that her shared university degree with colleague Alessandra Bramante suggests an ‘occult direction’ or hidden agenda. Labeling these theories ‘the conspiracy circus,’ Bruzzone expressed her intent to potentially pursue legal action regarding the insinuations.
