Having divided up the rays and have taken complete control here is starting the first few raids on remaining programs to make information:
Here is the letter sent on 8 Michele Santoro September to the Director General of RAI Mauro Masi, the Director Massimo Raidue Liofredi and directors, about the new edition of Annozero , which should debut Thursday, Sept. 24.
Dear Directors,two weeks after the departure of Annozero none of the contracts of my staff has yet been signed. Similarly, with serious effects on the preparatory work of the program, were not operational agreements with operators and technicians who are essential to the remotes and inquiries. Also were not disclosed spots that announce the start date of Annozero. I must say that this situation had never occurred since work in televisione, né era mai accaduto che obiezioni e perplessità in materia editoriale si presentassero sotto forma di impedimenti burocratici; perché questo modo di fare non può che minare l’autonomia dell’Azienda e le sue finalità produttive.
Nonostante le vostre ripetute assicurazioni di questi giorni e nonostante l’atteggiamento di grande collaborazione da me tenuto, la situazione non è sostanzialmente cambiata. Mi risulta che anche altri programmi di punta del servizio pubblico, in particolare di Raitre, abbiano gli stessi problemi e si trovino a dover superare ostacoli pretestuosi per la messa in onda. Si tratta di pezzi pregiati che offrono al pubblico importanti motivazioni per continue to pay fees at the same time are among the most attractive for advertising at a very difficult market.yourself you have given me (almost like an order) the decision to introduce Annozero third commercial break. Apart from the questionable decision, which confirms that we are one of the few programs of the RAI (I think you count on one hand) with entries of the spot well above the cost of the program. Our average of 16.70 per cent share by six points above the average of the first network for 34 nights, the possible removal of the program would open a hole hard to fill in programming, causing damage to the financial statements of Rai assessable in tens of millions of euro.Since newspapers and agencies near the Prime Minister continue to spread news about your intentions to me that you are not but fails to deny, I have to remember, first of all to you but also the President of the Rai and the Board of Directors, I am not on the air for the decisions of a party but a ruling by the judiciary fully upheld on appeal. Therefore proceedings are pending in the Court of Accounts that would attribute to individual liability costs that Rai had to bear the adverse judgments.then I can tell you that I will not give up because this ruling, and in the interests of the Company, mi aspetto che si recuperi il tempo perduto siglando tutti i contratti (e tra essi quello di Marco Travaglio), da noi predisposti più di due mesi fa, prima che Annozero fosse presentato a Milano agli investitori pubblicitari come un punto di forza del palinsesto autunnale. In questo modo potremo finalmente lavorare serenamente.
