Swiss newspaper publishers long to be insulted. To decorate their annual congress, they invite a member of the state government who reliably puts the media in its place. This time it was Ueli Maurer's turn, and he exceeded the task set for him in a nerdy way. In the speech written for him, he railed against the media's adulterators and meddlesomeness and eloquently ridiculed an entire industry. He mocked journalistic courtesans, denounced sloppiness and lack of criticism.
But then he failed the litmus uae rcs data test on his own behalf. He complained: "I have been in office for almost nine months now and have never really been criticized. Criticism always helps you improve." But later in the same conversation he added: "I never read what is written about me. The Abbot of Disentis once advised me to do that on a rhetoric course.
As soon as I see my name in an article, I turn the page." How was that? How could he read anything critical about himself if he consistently reads nothing about himself? And then he criticizes the work of journalists from a position of deliberately chosen ignorance? Pretty crazy, right? He criticized the newspaper "Sonntag" for not reporting an interview correctly.
