New Icelandic Myths

Got this from a friend this morning, the new Icelandic myths:

Bloggers are unemployed left wing radicals

Blogs are mainstream media in all aspects of Arts, Science, Lifestyle & Politics

We are very beautiful, intelligent and strong

Empirically true, but conversely, some are narrow minded, stupid and corrupt

We are part of EEA / fully functioning part of Europe

The Wild West was an integral part of America

There is a new Marshall in town, who will clean up the mess

Eva Joly is doing her best, but every week a new scandal [Hagar]

The Banks are Nationalised and working for the State

If writing off massive loans to friendly parties and minimal relief for Homeowners qualifies

The people have spoken; honesty is paramount

Thank goodness, you’ll need that for Justice, Integrity, Social Equality and respect

Criticism is just being negative; the future is bright

Constructive criticism is essential to rebuild a just society

We have a free media; it actually is ranked as one of the best

Morgunbladid is edited by the architect of the environment that precipitated the Kreppa.

Frettabladid is owned by Ingibjörg Pálmadóttir, wife of Jón Ásgeir Jóhannesson

( Purchased with a deposit of £7m, that coincidentally matches the sale of Baugur shares in Moss Bross to Sir Philip Green. )

You can’t say bad things, even if they are the truth

Yes you can; see you in the British libel courts
