Return of the rich man


Billionaire business tycoon media mogul well-heeled affluent well-off prosperous Silvio Berlusconi, Italy’s wealthiest man and one of the richest men in the world, is back! And with a larger margin than those who rule us can comfortably stomach! Their reaction is to explain this event to us rather than report it to us. One of the best of these explanations is that, as long as such and such gets done, the Italian people “couldn’t care less who their prime minister is”. And so forth.
BBC TV opts for just portraying him as a criminal buffoon. The fact that 47% of the Italian people voted for him is irrelevant to the BBC. This 47% of the population shall just be ignored until such time as it can be re-educated.
