How to get elected

As CEO of TV Nova, Vladimír Železný hired the CR's first black anchorman and constantly preached racial tolerance. Strange that he's now the one opposing the "Islamization" of Europe. Železný also established the system of inviting only the major political parties to participate in TV debates. Strange that he's now the one who praised Czech TV for breaking this "taboo" by inviting small parties to a debate. Železný is a great manipulator who, through superior intelligence and calculated aggressiveness, stifles criticism of his actions and words. When Týden reported that he had reached an agreement with CME to give up any claim to TV Nova, he abruptly ended the discussion by saying he'd never negotiate with CME. Given his behavioral patterns, it wouldn't be strange at all if he flip-flopped on this too and cut a deal with CME. A deal, perhaps, that also calls for giving him positive TV coverage in the election campaign.
