Jan Ross on the political styles of Berlusconi and Sarkozy

Following the resignation of Italy's government, Jan Ross asks: Would Europe be strong enough to handle a Berlusconi-Sarkozy duo, pairing the Italian media czar with the French media phenomenon Nicolas Sarkozy? Berlusconi's "openly predatory and profit-oriented approach doesn't fit Sarkozy's style. He plays a more subtle game with the media – his is not the command of the patron who picks the music because he paid the piper, nor is he simply chummy with publishers and industry bosses. Much more than Berlusconi, Sarkozy is himself a media phenomenon – not the producer but the talent, just as addicted to publicity as to manipulating it. He is the more fragile of the two, the one more at risk of toppling; and to deliver himself into the hands of the uncontrollable Carla Bruni is a risk that the robust macho-man Berlusconi would never have taken. But both men have a similar effect as destructive energies in the democratic system - self-oriented, hysterical and vulgar."
