In short: this program is just a pretext to make foam with the figures that make up the Mediaset universe.

This fear, panic, dread, deserved a repertoire of affected of greater importance. In a most interesting study by Professor Jose Antonio Marina (‘Anatomy of fear’, Anagram, 2006) tells us how he instructed Machiavelli to his imaginary princely disciples.

Right now on TV-3 the espionage or ‘Catalangate’ remains very vibrant. The entire chain has been making it widely visible for a week. Fear is transmitted. The fear of continuing to be spied on. And at the same time the feeling of intolerable affront of Spain against Catalonia is instilled in the audience. This combination, fear and offense, always works very well. Another piece of news that also makes them vibrate is that Puigdemont resigns from the presidency of Junts. Here they convey hope instead of fear. They say that in this way he will be able to dedicate himself fully to being the president of the Consell de la República. I think they are wrong in ruling out the fear factor in this case.
