It works correctly in Firefox for Android.

There's lots of browser/platform detection JS, but all of it is a red herring - the stuff in this file:
http://st.ilfattoquotidiano.it/wp-content/themes/ifq/assets/js/vendor/head.js

actually does a relatively good job:
g=/mobile|android|kindle|silk|midp|phone|(windows .+arm|touch)/.test(p);m.feature("mobile",g,!0),m.feature("desktop",!g,!0)

Inline in the page we have:

	var isTouch = head.touch;
	var isPhone =  head.touch && head.screen.width <= 640;
	var isTablet = head.touch && head.screen.width > 640 && !head.desktop;
	var isDesktop = head.desktop;
	var device = (isDesktop || isTablet) ? 'desktop': 'mobile';

But the real problem is some server-side browser detection that does *not* conclude the same way as the client-side sniffing. The clue is the word "desktop" here:

var scriptToLoad = "http://st.ilfattoquotidiano.it/wp-content/themes/ifq/assets/js/ifqn-desktop-d2a00bf5.js";

We contacted twice the website support team to report the issue but at the moment the bug isn't resolved.
