I have pointed out these past days that Berlusconi's scandals are not being covered by strategic news media in Italy. There is today yet another parliamentary interrogation over the steadfast refusal to cover the scandal by the major national network RAI 1. Not only is it being ignored, the Berlusconi appointee, Augusto Minzolini, counterattacked in an unprecedented live interview disparaging the scandal as unworthy of coverage.
Minzolini owes his entire career to being a ruthless cistern shark. The term "minzolinismo" was coined to describe a certain type of journalism: To report idle gossip from within the corridors of power without any pretense of verifying it.
Minzolini built a career on entertaining insinuations and unconditional praise for Optimus Poffarbacco. He is utterly allergic to reality just as is his master.
Nor is he the only one elevated to a position where he can grovel insolently in the floodlights. It's just that he's new and has those sexy blue eyes.
Do most Italians get their information only from the mass media?
information, what information?
oh the sports scores, now i get it!
italians hone most of their political opinions chatting in bars and barbershops. their box has a colourful enough lining, that most don't see much need to think out of it.
good food and family are the compensations italians use to forget their government is the most expensive, overstaffed, criminal and expensive in europe, (as well as the laughing stock of the entire planet).
the really weird thing is that the more he's attacked, the more italy wants to mother him, gaah.
he's nonnina's's lovable lil rascal, by jiminee, and his sins are forgiven weakly, ain't he a card?
dr feelgood, with his mojo stick, come to save italy from detumescence, lol.
maybe tripoli could be be the new hammamet, then he could get some of that dictator drag going, as well as the harems.
this g8 meeting could be um, interesting, especially as l'aquila just had another aftershock today, not bad enough to knock any structures down, but 4.6. ain't chickenfeed either, especially with recent memories. it was enough to make all the tenters rush out into the open.
could we be about to see the world leaders running round in pyjamas as their world teeters?
i think his publicity ploy using l'aquila is going to backfire bigtime. or as J. might say, 'it couldn't happen to a nicer, or more deserving fella'
besides the people in the area are pissed his stupid plan to build a new cement monstrosity for them to live in is very late in starting, so pissed they met en masse in rome the other day, in front of palazzo chigi.
are there even any hotels posh enough (and still standing) round there, for our glorious globocrats to stay in, or will they helicopter in from rome?
memo to obama, don't start any conversations about bidets, michelle will probably not appreciate ribald man-talk.
just compliment him on his tan, can't go wrong there... ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate." Karl Jung~
