The case of Vincenzo Schettini is causing a stir at the 2026 Sanremo Festival, affecting its programming. A popular physics teacher known for his informal and innovative teaching methods was set to appear during one of the festival's final nights; however, his last-minute decision to cancel has raised questions. His withdrawal is tied to the media uproar following controversial remarks he made during an interview on Gianluca Gazzoli's podcast. Schettini proposed a hybrid school model that includes paid online content, provocatively questioning whether 'good culture should not be for sale?' This statement has sharply divided public opinion and sparked heated debates about the commercialization of knowledge.
