When Julia went crying to daddy

It's my committee and I cry if I want to

"Sentejn ilu Lou, fil kampanja tal-MEP's, ghax kont bghattilha sms lil Julia nghidliha li hi laburista allavolja taghmilha ta wahda newtrali, kienet qabdet lil Institute of Maltese Journalists johorgu stqarrija jikkundannawni, minghajr ma tkellmu mieghi biex jaraw il fatti, allavolja jien membru bhala kont, izda hi deputy chairman u ghalhekk qaghdu ful il-kelma taghha biss - justice done finally Julia! What comes around, turns around."

This comment was posted on my facebook wall by Alan Deidun, an environmentalist who contested the last European Parliamentary elections on the PN ticket.

It is yet another indictation of the repulsive double standards that Julia Farrugia and her fellow MaltaToday gutter journalists use.

They relish destroying people in print on the basis of zero or very questionable evidence. They have no problem revealing their sources - one of the worst sins a journalist can commit - as Saviour Balzan did recently.

Julia Farrugia regularly runs stories about conflicts of interest. Yet she finds no difficlty in using her position as the IGM deputy chairman to get at a politician who does not run on her party's ticket. And of course, all MaltaToday hacks use their public medium to push their private envy agenda.

Yet when the spotlight is turned on someone like Julia Farrugia, when she is under scrutiny, she turns into a spineless, whimpering ninny. Like a spoilt brat, she cries and rushes to daddy with snot running down her nose. Even though it would be she who cheated in passju in the playground.
