«The public service is alive, and rests on the legs of the journalists animated by the value of independence and who work with the investigation method. The one who does not look in the face. “
This was said by Sigfrido Ranucci, conductor of “Report”, guest yesterday afternoon of the city club of the Pd of Grotteria (internal center of the Torbido valley who has undergone in the last century the depopulation of three quarters of its inhabitants) presenting “the choice”, the essay in which it tells masters, values and anecdotes of a career that has no intention of closing. And not even to continue elsewhere “because – he explained by replying to the questions of journalists Lucio Musolino and Giuseppe Mazzaferro – it is true that I was contacted by the urban publisher Cairo for a writing book and it is likely that we will meet as two people who estimate, but I was born and raised in Rai and the shirt of the public service I sewed on it. I just wish they remained – he added – the conditions such as to allow me and my collaborators to continue working with the penalty and freedom of all time “.
Introduced by the secretary dem citizen Simone Femia, by the metropolitan one Peppe Panetta and the president of the Tania Bruzzese metropolitan assembly who admitted that “many believed it was impossible to have Sigfrido Ranucci in Grotteria and instead …”, Ranucci said that “they accuse me of being obsessed with the center -right. I have repeatedly brought all the topics of our investigations to the Rai supervisory commission, I also collected acts of summons and complaints from all the constitutional arch, including De Luca, the governor of Campania. But beyond this, going to see, counts in hand, the person who was most subjected to investigations by Report is the Minister Speranza who I don’t think he is from the center -right. After that there is Renzi who I have not yet understood if he is right or left, this perhaps will tell us. And then there is the center -right ».
In the book he tells of his great master Roberto Morrione “who as director of Tg1 in the early 90s made revolutionary investigations such as the one on the relations between the CIA and the P2 who infuriated Cossiga so much that then – he recalled – was replaced by Bruno Vespa” and retraces, after remembering the Father Financier, other large reports of reports, such as the one on Tanzi’s paintings. But there is no shortage of references to current legislation “which in fact developed and codified the aims of Berlusconi’s Bulgarian edict”, restricting the possibility for journalists to make correct and complete information “and after the full entry into force of the Cartabia reform it will be even worse, because – he explained – there will be subjects who will be able to evade the processes”. There is also a nod on the dangers of the use of the web “which is like a drunk librarian who favors news and not the truth” and artificial intelligence “which if used in information can become natural deficiency”.
