Malta’s BBC/RAI: from bad to worse

You can tell it’s now being run by people from L-Orizzont, Maltastar and Super One, can’t you. They might as well sell the ruddy thing to the highest bidder.
There is absolutely no point in bleeding the taxpayer dry to fund a public broadcaster if it is not going to behave like one.

Deja vu Mr. Gouder ?
Is this the story of Charlon Gouder or something similar?
They’re rather coy, aren’t they? The ‘victim’ paid the woman to expose her breasts, not ‘biex jammiraha minghajr hwejjeg’.
It’s a blessing that the previous administration has done away with the annual TV licence.
TVM has to get its income – or, at least, the major part of it – from advertisements. Not many of these manage to impress all of us. Most do not – so we do not purchase the darned things. Period.
Any idiot who wants to be relieved of his wallet now knows exactly where he has to go.
On the public broadcaster I have no opinion whatsoever for the simple reason that I do not have the faintest idea what it is all about.
I can only just about surmise.
I wonder why the client’s name was published and the prostitute’s wasn’t?
The sex market in Malta will always be there and regulation will not make a damn bit of difference. I think it would be appropriate to give a very small example which I think your readers will agree,
1. Years ago I lived around the corner from Testaferrata Street in Gzira (which, by the way, no council still wants to take responsibility for). My two daughters (probably 9 or 10 at the time) would get off the school bus and make their way the short distance home. On one isolated occasion some perverted bastard slowed down and tried to pick them up only to be thwarted by a local, very long term hooker, who told him, in no uncertain terms, to sling his hook.
2. It was never unusual, especially in Summer, to sit on my balcony and see the usual bangers and the flash cars slowing down, park, and, with about as much finesse as a bull in a china shop, discreetly enter a block which, if you were lucky, you would either empty your nether regions or come out minus a nicked empty wallet. God I wish I had a mobile camera phone then.
3. The latest survey in the Times of Malta suggests that 72 percent of recipients (punters) say that it should be regularised, Yeah, right. But not in my front door dude. Amsterdam is massive. Berlin is massive. Malta is, well, err, ridiculously small.
Jason wants to revive the magic of Strait Street. Well, here’s his golden opportunity. Go for it, Jase.
If regularize means Putting all their activities in an area which is DISTANT (a long distance) from other people who want to live in peace with their families, then go ahead and let others live with peace of mind.
