Silvio Ortona - Silvio starts a "real” partisan radio station
Transcript: The radio was created as a form of counterattack. Because at a certain point, the dissident fascists who proved themselves to sort of be in good faith this guy, with a priest who was undoubtedly in good faith, etc, set up a radio that they called Radio Baita in Biella city. Radio Baita because it had to pretend to be a non-fascist radio that preached peace between the partisans and Germans, condemning the fascists as people to get rid of, And we denounced it for what it was, a very dangerous maneuver because, in some part of Italy, some people fell for it and tragic things happened in the meantime, however, someone thought up the idea of "Why don't we make a real partisan radio?" We found a transistor radio and this pharmacist improvised as the radio technician, and he set us up with a transistor radio. It was qualified, saying "Radio Libertš: the free voice of the volunteers for liberty" Those who listen don't have a doubt, we are partisans, real partisans, our motto says Italy and Liberty, our battle cry says it Death to the fascists, Death to the Germans Death to Germans, Death to the Traitor Fascists. After a few days, radio Baita died, killed by Radio Libertš.
