Well, those say nothing about the actual quality of "real" and "really italian" extravirgin olive oil. They only say that there is a lot of fake (or partially fake) oil around marked as Italian. And that some (good) producers of (good) olive oil are intimidated or forced to cooperate with Mafia. >Combine that with Camorra dumping toxic waste and poisoning vast areas of the Italian countryside and it's pretty obvious that Italy has a huge problem. Actually Italy has more than one huge problem, but this latter one you cited has nothing to do with "real" olive oil and its quality.
