It was the story after Anderson Cooper. Krofft was covering the crackdown on Bernardo Provenzano and the Sicilian Mafia, and one of the interviewees was a journalist who's been on the case from jump street. In the crackdown it's been discovered that these aren't just some ragtag hoodlums, their tentacles reach some pretty high places in the Italian government. The author, in trying to illustrate the implication of one member of Parliament's intimate involvement with the Mob, said that it would be like Karl Rove was working closely with the Bonanno Family (though I still think that the Bush Family makes the Bonannos look like the Waltons, imho).

I wonder if The Machine caught that little jab as well.
