“I have been honored to work with you in this great public service company of ours”: Serena Bortone he said this while greeting the audience What will be, its broadcast on Rai 3 has reached its final stages. His words, however, made us think of a farewell rather than a goodbye. Also because the presenter has not made an appointment for next autumn.
“This is the last episode, I want to thank everyone – he said yesterday, at the end of the last episode of the program -. I thank you, at home, who have followed us and supported us and who have grown episode after episode. Thanks for the affection and support, I wish you a good summer and above all, from the bottom of my heart, good wind“. His speech, in short, appeared as a real farewell to Rai. In recent weeks controversy had erupted over the writer’s case Antonio Scuratiwhose monologue on April 25th would have been canceled from Bortone’s broadcast, as reported by the presenter herself in a post on social media.

Viale Mazzini, for its part, has always denied censorship, speaking of “misalignments”, that is, misunderstandings between the various structures of the program; and he claimed that that post damaged the company, creating a huge controversy out of nothing. For this reason, a verification procedure was opened by the company, which has not yet been concluded. In any case, Bortone’s broadcast would have ended up in the sights of Rai top management well before the controversy over Scurati due to ratings considered not satisfactory. According to Corriere della Sera, the journalist would have resorted to a generic formula to greet her audience probably because she doesn’t know what will happen either. The autumn schedules will be closed within the week and will then be presented in Naples on 19 July.
