A week ago, more or less, I received an e-mail with a link to a video on “YouTube” that showed a recent reaction of a known Portuguese politician. Well, the video was about Santana Lopes, a politician from the right wing that is known for his night life and appearances in tabloid magazines. He was president of a soccer club, he was mayor of the Portuguese city “Figueira da Foz” and he was also Prime-minister of Portugal for some months. He was demitted from Prime-minister by the President of the Republic because of the way he was conducting the Government and leading the country (Portugal). From all that I’ve said you can now imagine what kind of person he is and his ideals and principles.
The content of the video showed that he was giving an interview to talk about what was happening in the party that he is member and then the journalist that was conducting the interview interrupted him to give special news. Well, the news was the arrival of the Portuguese coach José Mourinho and saying that he just wanted that the journalists left him alone. This news took more or less three minutes.
When the broadcast returned to the main studio, Santana Lopes expressed his thoughts about what happened. He said that it was a shame that a television preferred to interrupt an interview where political problems were being discussed to film a soccer coach. He also decided to end the interview, and he did it in a calm but decided way. I think his reaction was correct and that make him be a little more credible to me.
However, this was a feeling that lasted only some days because I heard that his reaction on that day was not in accordance with his reactions in the past. Apparently, he was the cause for interruptions in the television’s broadcast in the past, when he was for example president of a soccer club and he was happy to be the center of the attentions at those times. Well, he can’t blame now for the attitude of the television since he agreed with that attitude in the past.
And now he’s being criticized because of his reaction on that day because that put him on the center of stage like he likes and liked in the past. He should have been coherent with his past…
PS: As a comment for my post of the “Portuguese Airshow 2007”, one of these days a friend of mine João, who is starting the course to become a pilot and thus is a reliable source, told me that the two pilots on the aircraft that supposedly almost let one of the wings of an Airbus A310 touched the ground were two very experienced pilots from TAP that spent many hours in a flight simulator practicing for that maneuver. In other words, this answer the post: it was planned and therefore an “awesome maneuver”.
PS2: Here's the video on "YouTube" that I watched.
