When you own the propaganda system, you can get away with anything
Unless the propaganda system wants you out, you can usually stay as long as you wish. Unless the MSM turns against Delay - with more zeal - he can probably ride out this storm. Because they own the propaganda system, they can get away with robbing the people's Treasury. Who has asked where the missing $9 billion dollars went in Iraq? Who has asked for answers in the illegal invasion that has killed tens of thousands of people? Who has asked the king for his plans on SS "privatization" but continuously repeats the mantra, "Where is the Democratic plan?" When you own the propaganda system, you can get away with murder...and they have.

He owns/controls virtually all media in Italy, but they figured him out anyway, as there's no escaping the foreign press. People got sick of the baloney and turned to alternative media.

There IS hope.
DU is a part of it!
