Pierluigi Pardo defends Alessandro Vescini after DAZN broadcast error
Journalist Pierluigi Pardo has publicly defended DAZN reporter Alessandro Vescini following social media criticism regarding a broadcast error during the first day of Serie A. The controversy arose after a clip was aired showing Vescini stumbling during a segment before the Udinese-Como match and asking a cameraman to restart, unaware that the footage was being broadcast live.
Pardo addressed the backlash on social media, describing the controversy as “surreal.” He explained the technical complexities of television broadcasting, noting that professionals often record “fake lives” where they may stop and restart if a take is unsatisfactory. Pardo argued that those criticizing Vescini’s professionalism lack an understanding of television mechanisms, adding that even experienced broadcasters make mistakes.
