With a message on Linkedin, Claudio Lippi made an appeal to Roberto Sergio, the CEO of Rai. The host commented on a post by the CEO in which he remembered Pier Francesco Forleo, former Rai manager. Lippi’s fear is that he is “too late” to be reinstated in the company. Lippi has been clamoring to return to Rai for some time, and he wanted to give it a try extremis on the portal where, par excellence, you look for work.
Claudio Lippi, the appeal to Rai and Roberto Sergio
Not the best post in which to make an appeal – considering that it was dedicated to the memory of Pier Francesco Forleo – as recognized by Claudio Lippi himself, but he tried anyway. The comment is aimed at Roberto Sergio. “I’m still waiting to be reinstated after being excluded from the Company after years of honorable service for a decision that did not foresee a democratic confrontation with my version of one interview never given and which she wanted to believe in order to live peacefully with her ‘managers’ (one for all Dr. Coletta)”.
Sergio has not responded at the moment. Lippi added that he had a “good memory”, and that he hoped for the job, although he fears it is too late. “He did it for Insegno, Giletti, De Martino, Chiambretti”. A slew of names of hosts confirmed or returned to Rai, such as Giletti, or the confirmation of De Martino, currently the “top host”, who should take Amadeus’s place. The message ended with a best wishes for Sergio’s next assignment.
Claudio Lippi out of Rai, the reasons
Claudio Lippi is out of Rai: la dissemination of some declarations blocked any collaboration, leading to a controversy that the host has never forgotten. The sentences, reported against Stefano Coletta, led Rai to make a drastic decision on Lippi’s future on television. “Luckily it’s no longer there, made gay men and women work just for the reason of being one. Many and many who had no competence, Rai used to come out. But do you think so? Then we straight people should come out too, no.”
After the statements made to the agency To say, in June 2023 Rai intervened immediately, excluding any type of project and distancing itself from what was reported. “Some statements by Claudio Lippi reported by information bodies I am harmful to the reputation of Rai and their own senior executives. Therefore, any type of collaboration with the tenant must be excluded.”
Several times over the months he has tried to “exonerate” himself from what he said, even going so far as to deny the interview itself toHandle. “I suffered a clumsy attack on my privacy and a serious damage to my image. I don’t recognize myself in the statements attributed to me: I wouldn’t use the word scoundrel.” Also during 2023, a moment of strong embarrassment occurred live on Rai1, in the program hosted by Francesca Fialdini, Here… Freewheeling. All that remains is to wait for a reply from Sergio, even if it remains a very unlikely hypothesis.
