Comment of the day (night?)

The ONE NEWS presenter last night said that in the recording RCC implicates “b’mod car” Professor Demarco as one of the persons he suspects to be responsible for his attempted murder.
I recorded the clip which had a transcript of the recording, and played it many times….even pausing it occassionally to read the text carefully.
NOWHERE in the text does RCC claim, or even suggest that Prof De Marco was involved in the attack on his life.
He only said that Guido found it hard to tell Brigadier Calleja that he had to resign and probably told Calleja that this was “Xi cuccata ta’ Richard”.
He then said he was annoyed (understandably I suppose) that Dr. Demarco’s children (top criminal defence lawyers) defended his attackers in court.
Does NOBODY at ONE NEWS or the PL know how to read plain English? – How they came to the conclusion that RCC implicated De Marco is beyond
comprehension.
Unfortunately ONE NEWS is aimed at an audience of illiterate and ignorant people who will believe anything they tell them. Even people commenting here obviously did not read the actual text of the conversation.
On the other hand I think ONE NEWS is actually helping the PN to regain its support as the intelligent majority realises how shameless and disgusting the PL machine really is.

I fully agree with this comment.
I was shocked to hear One News claim that Richard Cachia Caruana ‘implika lil’ Guido Demarco in the attempted murder. This was before I heard the actual recording.
The implication was that he believed Demarco had in some way associated himself with whoever masterminded the crime.
This is deceit of the highest order, and deeply slanderous to both men.
But when I heard the recording, I saw that this was not true at all and could not even be inferred from what was said.
The same can be said re reference to ex-Minister Lawrence Gatt.
Never have Labour stooped so low.
I just listened to the tape and read the transcript, ssince watching Super One plays havoc with my blood pressure.
What with all the fuss, I thought it would have been groundbreaking.
But now that I heard the wretched thing I cannot for the life of me see what all the fuss is about. Richard Cachia Caruana never implicates for one second de Marco or Lawrence Gatt in his attempted murder.
It’s unbelievably stupid of Super One to have understood anything of the sort from that recording, or to suggest it deliberately and falsely.
In his last sentence Jonathan refers to “the intelligent majority”.
This must be THE phrase of the day, the night, the year and the millenium.
Once a psychiatrist friend of mine told me that if one is paranoiac, one starts to see ghosts wherever one wishes and not where reason would tell you that one should normally expect to see them. He continued to say that actually it is this condition that points to the fact that the individual is paranoiac.
DeMarco siblings, please sue Super One for slandering your father’s name!
