Controversy
In 2014, di Giovani wrote an article for Newsweek so full of clichés and factual errors about France (claiming, for instance, that "the problem with the French is they have no word for entrepreneur") that both left and right wing French newspapers wrote scathing reviews of it, questioning both her integrity as a journalist and her mental sanity [5][6] [7][8][9].
