Tingting,

其实是我反应迟钝，一直以为他是因为在那么忙的情况下，后悔不该接受采访，还被问到了令人恼火的问题，所以说这种情况是“imbécile"。我女儿却比我头脑清醒，她说就是当面骂了Lesley，我才意识到问题的“严重性”。

前天三个客户给我电话催稿，挂电话后，我也说“Quelle imbécile"，我指的是这种situation，这几天想类似表达时，就情不自禁要说：“Quelle imbécile“，然后和女儿爆笑一阵，拿我们总统的失误开开心，也挺有意思

That reminds me of that line in the movie "Home Alone". One of the siblings says to Kevin when he asks for help to pack his luggage, "You're what the French call 'Les incompetent'" ... Sometimes we use that line to joke around.

Kidding aside, I don't think Sarkozy called Lesley Stahl an imbecile, at least not to her face.

Biased report of world events is not uncommon even in the west. Media groups are often owned by powerful business people. Some don't interfere with the reporting, some do meddle in the daily reporting of events. As a result, a lot of media groups do have a bias either towards the left or the right. They might only focus on one side of the story, and be regarded as very biased to some viewers. But I wouldn't call their report fabricated. In order to know what is going on, I usually try several news sources. In the US, CNN is regarded as very liberal, and Fox News is very conservative. They both have a bias.

chance,

Remember what Tingting said about the political bias different media outlets typically have?

Watch how Fox News gossip columnists gloat over the incident of Sarkozy walking off the set of the 60-minutes interview.

Actually, the publicity of this incident wouldn't have been so widespread had CBS themselves decided not to air it in the first place. I believe there's nothing for Lesley Stahl to be ashamed of. She acted totally professionally in my opinion. Her objectivity in her reporting of this story also speaks for itself.


I actually never heard of John Gibson. But take a look at this guy's record. It borders on what they call a "right-wing nut job"

你是开玩笑吧，我没觉得他是在说Lesley啊。

Chance, 我离开法国太久了，已经忘了法国人的一些习惯了。法国人是不是挺爱说“imbécile"，就像北京人爱说傻帽一样？

也想再補充一句，看到這裏很多是海外華人，其實之所以這麼多人變成海外，但是大概我們的文化很習慣去適應別人，很容易去入鄉隨俗，所以已經不再在乎為什麼
為了讓大家知道貧窮不是什麼取笑的點，我想解釋一下
在以前是怎樣的貧窮，在以前是多少年被變成奴隸、被賣豬仔，一次又一次被別人接手統治自己，先是滿州人，後來是很多很多外國，甚至整個文明也被消毀，連自己的衣服也以為是旗裝馬掛，因為剃髮易服，不再認得「衣」字型的自己的傳統衣服，上個世紀甚至為了適應世界還差點變成拉丁文廢除漢文，所以最後需要逃走生活，那時候也是最底層，多少年來是這樣生活，但是是不是自己變得生活還可以，然後就連這些自己祖先被侵略的苦痛也不再知道
當別人為了應付貧窮，甚至只能有一個孩子，被剝奪得需要吃沙吃泥土，然後全世界流傳甚麼都可以吃，但是為什麼海外的大家可以如此無知，可以覺得這些是可以取笑的點
