And 60 Minutes is some sort of news show or??

The American news media continue to entertain. Hilarious read for all Eurotrashies. This is right up there with Euroarabia.

"Sarko l’Américain" SuperFrenchie

According to 60 Minutes:

- The French call him Sarko l’Américain. Except that the only times I’ve heard that expression is precisely in the American media. Nobody in France calls him that, except maybe himself.

- French policy was anti-American before Sarko. Yeah, right. That’s probably why we’re in Afghanistan, and why we tried to prevent the Iraq disaster!

- French policy was anti-Israel before Sarko. Like, when we gave them nukes?

- Past French presidents did not go into crowds! Ever watched Chirac delight in crowds?

- We have a law that forbids everybody to work more than 35 hours a week. Can’t work overtime. Hey, Leslie, how about checking wiki before uttering stupidities on national television?

47-Nation Pew Global Attitudes Survey

 

But it's nice to see that the rest of the world disagrees...

"Sweden tops poll of nation brands" BBC (from 2005)

Sweden has been voted number one in a poll of 11 nation brands for its image as both comforting and cutting edge.
...
Sweden is admired for "its rare combination of stable and responsible governance, honest and trustworthy people, successful cultural exports and being a prime location for investment".
