A programme on State broadcaster RAI
has been suspended after running a segment advising women on
'how to be sexy while shopping at the supermarket'.
RAI has opened a probe into the segment on Detto Fatto, Tuesday
which featured a skimpily clad showgirl.
RAI CEO Fabrizio Salini said the 'tutorial' on the Rai2 show was
an "extremely serious" case of perpetuating unhealthy
stereotypes.
Salini suspended the show after widespread calls for him to
condemn the segment.
Wednesday night's edition of the show was not programme because,
being a recorded programme, it was impossible to include an
apology for the incident.
Detto Fatto has now been suspended until further notice, Salini
said Wednesday night.
