As fromFreedom House Italy was just rated as partly free :

Global Press Freedom Declines in Every Region; for First Time Israel, Italy and Hong Kong Lose Free Status. … Out of the 195 countries and territories covered in the study, 70 (36 percent) are rated Free, 61 (31 percent) are rated Partly Free and 64 (33 percent) are rated Not Free. This represents a modest decline from the 2008 survey in which 72 countries and territories were Free, 59 Partly Free and 64 Not Free. The new survey found that only 17 percent of the world’s population lives in countries that enjoy a Free press.
