Yes -- American media are so used to being unabashed idiots they were stunned recently when their normal behavior got called "stupid" and cost them an interview. Yes -- Americans are so used to the media being complete jackasses, nobody even notices -- but a French guy noticed.
Who was it Klown? Who was it and what did they do?
Here's the scoop, hoppage.
------------------
French President Nicolas Sarkozy walked out of an interview with US CBS television news show 60 minutes, according to a clip of the show released Sunday in advance of the interview's airing.
A clearly disturbed Sarkozy stood up muttering in French about the question, which was not heard, in a short publicity clip put on the Internet ahead of the 60 Minutes broadcast Sunday night.
"You asked me that question," Sarkozy seems to say as he pulls off the microphone, stands up and walks away from the interviewer, who appears confused.
Sarkozy, whose office announced October 18 that he had divorced his wife Cecilia, is known to be particularly prickly about questions on his personal life.
He is also shown in the clip for the segment entitled "Sarko L'Americain" saying, "What an idiot," in apparent reference to his own press secretary.
"He's smart, energetic and tempestuous," the 60 Minutes clip said in promoting the show.
It was not clear when the CBS interview was conducted.
---------------------
French President Nicolas Sarkozy showed flashes of temper and abruptly terminated a television interview aimed at introducing him to US audiences. (Get that folks? Walking out on no-class jackass is now a "flash of temper.")
In the 60 Minutes interview, broadcast in the US on Sunday, the French president sparred with the reporter, called his press secretary an imbecile, said he was too busy to make time for a "stupid" interview and ended the whole conversation abruptly when asked about the state of his marriage to Cecilia.
The Sarkozys' divorce was announced about two weeks later.
"If I had something to say about Cecilia, I would not do so here," he said before cutting off further questions.
In two interviews, a brief one aboard a plane and a more formal one several weeks ago, he expressed his admiration for both the US work ethic and its pop music.
Asked about his father's fears years ago that anyone with a Hungarian last name like Sarkozy could not succeed in France, he said one thing he admires about the US democracy is its openness and opportunities to all kinds of people.
"You can be called Schwarzenegger and be governor of California," he said.
