“Rai has sent a letter of disciplinary complaint to Serena Bortone in reference to the post published by the journalist on its social profiles on 20 April regarding the Scurati affair. As per practice in the dispute, the journalist is asked for any justifications and clarifications”. This was announced by Viale Mazzini.
“And so he did it: Roberto Sergio, the man who as a Rai manager and radio director publicly attacked the Radio Rai Newspaper on social media, now as CEO he punishes with disciplinary proceedings those who, even through social media, defend their freedom and professionalism from an “asphyxiating” control system ” on the work of Rai journalists. The measures announced on the Scurati affair therefore reached the wrong person. The disciplinary proceedings opened against Serena Bortone it is unacceptable. Enough is enough.” He tells ANSA Daniel Machedasecretary Usigrai.

“In this evening’s hearing we will also ask Rossi and Sergio to account for this. The measure is full and the violations of which the current Rai governance is now being stained are now daily and repeated. Today’s – conclude the PD members – was an entirely political intervention, we ask that Rai also do the same thing with the other party leaders, starting from Elly Schlein“.
Cdr Rainews24: “History of the trampled newspaper”
“Rainews24 in the times of Paolo Petrecca. A speech by the prime minister, candidate for the European elections, broadcast live without journalistic intermediation for 46 minutes. Not for 3 minutes. But for 46. And it’s not the first time. Now some zealous collaborator of the director will say that the theme song was broadcast and that the rules of equal conditions allow it. We only see that the daily work of a group of people has been thrown into the bin. An already prepared daily column was skipped and many guests were faced with a fait accompli. One thing is certain: the rules do not allow trampling on the dignity of many good colleagues who work in our editorial offices. By now the history of a glorious public service newspaper has been trampled on by people who use the term pluralism only as a screen to cover small shop interests. Note on the strike. Some anomalies have been reported to us. Including phone calls from members of the management pro tempore to find out whether or not they would join the strike. Such zeal is touching.” Thus the CDR of Rainews24 in a note.
