On October 10, 2023, the delivery truck arrives late, and, pressed for time, attorney Giovanni Gatteschi, left, reaches in to search for his desired newspaper titles. Over a dozen different newspaper titles arrive at the newsstand in mixed stacks each day. There are national newspapers, regional newspapers and sports newspapers. As October rolls on, customers say things like, 'Oh, I was thinking I'd find you closed,' and 'I’m glad you're still here!' When people ask, “when are you closing?” Scartoni answers, “There's lots of confusion . . . . I'll tell you once I know,” and “The situation is fluid.” When one woman says, “If you leave us, you leave us in ignorance,” Scartoni covers his face in both his hands.
