Africa-Press – Angola. After the controversial dissemination of lies shamelessly broadcast in Bolshevik fashion by Ricardo Costa, SIC’s information director, it resulted in a frenzied media speculative squabble on social media.
The political media landscape was shockingly obscured. The public reacted suspiciously to the lack of a strong reaction to the spread of such serious lies.
Ricardo Costa brought to light untruths that have never happened in the national political scene. It is necessary to take into account that the untruths produced have greatly affected the honorability of political agents in our political arena.
Hence, the intervention of the other actors involved is deserved. The reaction of the president of the democratic bloc was supposed to be felt, and civil society should also react in search of the truth, instead of criticizing UNITA and its president for something that never happened.
It is true that the financial crisis has hit the lungs of Portuguese journalism, however, when the issue is the treatment of informative data about Angola, then the truth is completely hidden, Portugal does not accept that we walk on our own two feet.
There is a known promiscuous arrangement between the Portuguese press and the MPLA. The Portuguese press agrees to spread lies, which the MPLA believes are beneficial to it. In exchange, the MPLA buys space to spread lies on television channels and elsewhere.
The journalistic spirit could not sympathize with this atypical retrograde propaganda disguised as information. Let it be clear that information is information, period.
Social media
Thanks to social media, which showed us the horrible lies produced by the vain information director of SIC, when he used and abused perverse and lying language among his peers, the deep throat of the CIC showed the extreme vanity exposed in his cadaverous countenance.
The SIC journalist cannot promote lies as truth, in fact, it is completely unethical to act insultingly against a large portion of the Angolan population that identifies with UNITA.
The SIC journalist knows that he has additional responsibilities, as he is also the information director of the aforementioned Portuguese television channel.
The president of UNITA was good, he only sinned by the softness of his voice and the deserved bluntness, making it known that a civil lawsuit would be filed against SIC and its information director.
The journalist who spreads dangerous fake news deserves to be prosecuted by the Portuguese judiciary. Ricardo Costa’s criminal actions could not go unnoticed, as if it were a gossipy conversation between gossips.
Inventing information with such obstructive arrogance is a crime in Portugal as in the rest of European countries. Lies could not be produced due to a lack of journalistic truth. On the other hand, the truth could not be segregated in favor of incendiary lies.
Angola is being used as a free territory to produce false propaganda favorable to the MPLA.
This coup engineered by SIC against the opposition follows a strategy defined in the secret laboratories, which aims only to tarnish the distinguished image of the president of UNITA, and also to try to put UNITA and the MPLA, a party engaged in promoting corruption, on an equal footing in order to remain in power in Angola.
How is it possible to believe that a television channel like SIC has a deep-throat on its staff who uses lies as an informative expedient?
Ricardo Costa, the man everyone has been talking about for the last 48 hours, discredits himself with his childish behavior as a spoiled child.
No one owns the truth, but humility is good for all who feel they are universalist citizens with identical human qualities.
It is important to know that Ricardo Costa is the brother of António Costa, former Prime Minister of Portugal. This Portuguese personality, when questioned about the fake news produced by his journalist brother, former Prime Minister Antônio Costa, denied such statements.
He further stated that he was not responsible for the lies produced by his brother, adding that there had never been any negotiation between UNITA and the MPLA resulting from the electoral fraud, in which the Portuguese government was involved. And that’s it!
It is unbelievable, but the truth is inescapable, it is completely unacceptable that the television network of the Pinto Balsemão family, accepts to keep a prostitute who disseminates fake news as its news director.
The place for deep throat is not in the information management of SIC, unless there is a collective commitment from the company to pay financial favors to the MPLA, and thus promote its most recently acquired satellite party.
