Like every Saturday afternoon on Rai1, the show hosted by Marco Liorni,or Italy yes, with which the well-known conductor keeps the Italians company over the weekend. But the episode of the 24 October 2020 did not air. The decision was communicated to the staff of the program shortly before the start and the motivation has nothing to do with the health epidemic that is afflicting our country, but is the result of a strike within the Rai.
Because ItaliaSì did not go on the air
A sudden stop that it was Marco Liorni who communicated through his social channels, explaining the reason for this interruption and apologizing to all the viewers who were waiting to be able to watch the program. On Twitter, the host writes: “Today #ItaliaSi unfortunately will not go on air. We are very sorry, the episode was ready, but we were warned shortly before the live broadcast that we would not go for reasons that will be communicated by the company. See you next Saturday.” In a subsequent tweet, he then states: “Ps. no Covid case“. A way to guarantee the public that the failure to broadcast did not depend on health problems, but on a strike by the company’s internal staff. A hypothesis not entirely unfounded, since in Studio 3, where is this talk shot and, Today is another day, Serena Bertone’s program aired every afternoon, cases of coronavirus positivity have been found.
What aired in place of ItaliaSì
Nothing had been communicated in good time, so that even the programmers could organize themselves. Instead of the broadcast, in fact, in the grip of the surprise of the strike, two different programs were broadcast: a replica of the old episode of ItaliaSì and then a replica of the episode of “Allieva 3”.
