TGR (Italian:TG Regione) is the brand for Italian state-owned public broadcasting companyRai'sregionalnews programmes. They are broadcast domestically onRai Tre andRai Radio 1. It was launched in 1979 asTG3 Regione, and was known asRai Regione from 1987-1992 before adopting the currentTGR name from 1992-1999 (when its name was changed toTG3 Regione again) and again from 2002 onwards. Today with about 800 journalists is Europe's largest broadcast news organisation.[citation needed].
The programme is generally presented by a singlenewsreader with additional newsreaders for the sports news. Most items are made up of reports and are generally preceded and followed by thecorrespondent reporting live from the scene of the report. It is a local news bulletin: the news only concerns the region to which the edition belongs (21 editions for 20 regions: for theTrentino-Alto Adige region two different news programs are broadcast, TGR Trento for the Trentino area and TGR Bolzano for the Alto Adige area) and the program only airs in the relevant region through Rai 3 channel. The programme airs at 14:00 and at 19:30 and lasts 20 minutes. There is also a third edition, shorter, lasting about five minutes, called "Edizione della notte" (night time edition) that airs at around 23:30 but sometime a bit later. The programme is followed by aweather report known asMeteo.
