From Mr V. Laiviera

It would seem that Mr Jurgen Cassar (Labour can’t be trusted, TMIS, 11 November) is not content with posting highly slanted videos on Youtube, and has taken to writing letters to the press as well.

Not surprisingly, he wrote in defence of another prime example of media manipulation – the Bondiplus programme that discussed Labour’s budget-related proposals.

During that programme, Bondi’s bias and hostility towards the MLP representative were plain for all to see – and have been officially acknowledged.

The cherry on the cake came when, right at the very end of the programme, Bondi presented a set of alleged costings of Labour’s proposals – prepared by government sources and “confirmed” by (not surprisingly) anonymous economists – and expected the Labour representative to make a coherent analyses “on the hoof”, something that would task even the most expert of economists.

This is “ambush journalism” of the worst kind and proves, if any proof was needed, that all ethics have been thrown to the wind in the desperate efforts to help the PN cling to power.

May I humbly suggest that Mr Cassar and Mr Bondi pool their abilities and post the famous “Black Mass” on Youtube?
