Monday morning, during an interview with the Parliamentary Secretary Keith Azzopardi Tanti, Net News asked him whether he is in contact with former Prime Minister Joseph Muscat. Keith replied in the affirmative.
NET News spent the entire day spinning this into some kind of “scandal”. A normal answer, a normal relationship, turned into sensationalist garbage.

Once again, they have proven their obsession with Dr Joseph Muscat. Not policy. Not youth. Not innovation. Not facts.
Just the same tired fixation, because without Muscat’s name, NET News has nothing to talk about.
And while they obsess over shadows, Keith Azzopardi Tanti keeps delivering real results.
