Report is an independent investigative journalistic TV program in Italy, aired on Rai 3, a channel of the Italian State 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: corporate crime, political corruption, criminal schemes, nutrition, health, science, economy, society or environment.
The author and anchorwoman was, since the beginning, the freelance journalist Milena Gabanelli. The other journalists and episode editors are: Giovanna Boursier, Michele Buono, Giovanna Corsetti, Giorgio Fornoni, Sabrina Giannini, Bernardo Iovene, Giuliano Marrucci, Paolo Mondani, Piero Riccardi e Stefania Rimini. Sigfrido Ranucci co-authored the show for ten years and in March 2017 he became Milena Gabanelli's successor. Chiara Baldassari was also 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.
In 2016, the program won the Television Direction Award for Best Program of the Year. In 2021, the program was awarded a Flaiano awards, awards recognizing achievements in television, radio and journalism, for the Best TV Program.
