TG1 (Telegiornale 1) is the flagship television newscast produced by Rai 1, the main channel of state-owned Italian public broadcaster RAI. It is the longest running program in the history of television in Italy as it has been broadcast daily since 3 January 1954.

It is shown domestically on Rai 1 and across the world on Rai Italia several times throughout the day. The journalist Monica Maggioni is the current editor-in-chief. It was launched as simply Telegiornale, which was later renamed as TG1 in 1975–76. From 1992–93 it was named Telegiornale Uno before reverting to the TG1 name.

Programme format

The programme is generally presented by a single newsreader but with additional newsreaders for the sports. Most items will be made up of reports and are generally preceded and followed by the correspondent reporting live from the scene. The programme is followed by a weather report known as Meteo and a financial news report, known as TG1 Economia.

Criticism and controversies

The Undersecretary to Communications Paolo Romani, member of The People of Freedom, in an interview with the newspaper Il Tempo, has defined that the TG1 "seems politically affiliate with the Centre-left".[1]

However it is criticized by the newspaper la Repubblica[2] for political bias in favour of The People of Freedom party and its leader Silvio Berlusconi, when the politician Antonio Di Pietro requested the dismissal of the editor in chief of TG1 Augusto Minzolini, comparing him to Emilio Fede, editor-in-chief of a newscast broadcated by one of the television channels personally owned by Silvio Berlusconi.[3]

Opening theme

The opening theme for the newscast has been done by an orchestra since its debut in 1952, although the arrangement has been modernised several times, most recently in 2022.
