Report is an independent journalistic TV program in Italy, aired on Rai 3, a channel of the Italian national network RAI for the first time in 1997. The first season were transmitted late in the night, but its increasing success made it possible to move it to prime time.
It was inspired by a similar program, Professione Reporter (Profession: Reporter), aired from 1994 to 1996.
Each episode is structured to touch a different topic: nutrition, health, science, economy, society or environment.
The author and anchorwoman is the freelance journalist Milena Gabanelli, the other journalists and episode editors are: Giovanna Boursier, Michele Buono, Giovanna Corsetti, Giorgio Fornoni, Sabrina Giannini, Bernardo Iovene, Paolo Mondani, Sigfrido Ranucci, Piero Riccardi e Stefania Rimini. Chiara Baldassari was part of the Report team until her death in 2005.
Paolo Barnard, author of some of the most critical episodes about globalisation, Israel and economical organisations, decided to leave Report after internal disputes.
