Enrico Mentana’s slaps to Gruber, Floris, Formigli, Porro, Ansa, Agi, newspapers and news. And Cairo?…
Not just Enrico Mentana's slaps in the press review pills
ENRICO MENTANA AGAINST EVERYONE, EVEN AGAINST URBANO CAIRO'S 7
Reading Annalisa Cuzzocrea's long and interesting interview with Enrico Mentana I perhaps picked up some news: Mentana will leave the direction of the La7 news program at the end of the year, upon expiry of his contract. But perhaps I read wrongly and too maliciously between the lines of the answers…

Do you do it? "We need to have a truthful discussion about the role of the agencies. Many, starting with Ansa, live on agreements with ministries, with the government (…) And let's realize that we are talking about a dying world, like that of newspapers, news broadcasts" . (Enrico Mentana to La Stampa)

«In the 80s and 90s Mike Bongiorno, Carrà, Baudo, Corrado left Rai for Mediaset (…) there is an attraction for the private individual who doesn't have to parameterise the fees, account for the license fee, has more decision-making speed because he doesn't have the politics as publisher".

Ghali? "In Sanremo he had the full right to support the Palestinian cause. We cannot think of a ban on this. And the Israeli ambassador makes an incredible mistake in protesting." (Enrico Mentana on La7)

How much influence did TeleMeloni have?
"Almost nothing. Amadeus, as an author, will find the formats. He would not have moved if Rai had had the opportunity to decide. And he couldn't produce", says Agostino Saccà (former deputy director of Rai2, former director of Rai1, former general manager of Rai) to Repubblica.

EXTRACT FROM AN ARTICLE FROM SOLE 24 ORE ON RAI:
If everything goes well, without any hitches, the next board could become official in a window between 18 and 20 May. Of course, you should run. Meanwhile, the one approved yesterday by the board of directors is a balanced budget with a net debt of 568 million euros, an improvement compared to the previous year and in any case attested to sustainable levels. The average net debt in 2023 was 328 million euros", reads the Rai statement. Total group revenues stood at 2.736 billion with 1.839 billion in license fee revenue decreased by 25.2 million compared to the previous year. A decrease "determined mostly by the significant increase in arrears on electricity bills related to the complexity of the socio-economic context", we read in the Rai note.
«The financial statements closed today – says Sergio again – which sees me as CEO, but in a work carried out with the president Marinella Soldi, with the general director Rossi and with the entire board of directors, records an improvement compared to a forecast of 650 million of investment and red of around 40 million. I would like to point out the 22 million more in advertising revenue (to 665 million, ed. )". Better accounts, but a Rai where the best escape? The CEO doesn't agree: «It's false. We reported Chiambretti and Giletti on Rai. Berlinguer's farewell is often talked about. So do we want to say that Salvo Sottile isn't doing an excellent job? We have talented young people like Stefano Di Martino. We have nothing to fear. And instead we will assert ourselves in civil court against those who have denigrated us and called us servants (reference to Massimo Giannini, ed. ).
Meanwhile, the real estate and industrial plans are moving forward. Viale Mazzini is preparing to move starting from the end of 2025, with the former Wind on Cristoforo Colombo which should act as a bridge solution. There are also no second thoughts regarding the sale of Rai Way shares. In today's board of directors meeting it should be understood what the window for the sale will be. Which could even be in May.
