Islands (II) Because of an article a friend sent me by email
This week, I would like an annex to this entry
some time ago in which I expressed my amazement (if not indignation, as it seems I have no right to both) to the fact that in the rest of Spain know nothing about us or our land canaries. I had not planned to talk more about it, but this text that I went and had forgotten too long
good not to teach. Expose
The case now goes a little beyond ignorance. This is an opinion piece about 3 years ago, which fell quite badly in the press and the islands' society (I did not hear about firsthand then is what you have to live away from home). Was published in the journal
DNA (if you know it, most likely because you may have a raised eyebrow), and it's so surreal
the first thing that came to mind was that, obviously
was a satire ... until I realized that it was, but halfway, because he left the printing of DNA
, precisely, and I know how they spend. I say this knowingly because for a time this newspaper distributed free every morning in front of my school, and was lucky enough to "enjoy" every morning. Let's see the article in question before anything (Sorry for the bad quality of the image):

have so little grace that gives the feeling that is written in clear and serious ... many, apparently interpreted it literally
(since, according to Saint Google, this man had been criticized Articles previously thinly veiled racist tone). From what I've seen, mine is not an isolated opinion, and the newspaper was forced to withdraw the item from your web
and make a
correction the next day apologizing to readers.
Another example of ignorance, and the results that we get if we add to the will to make jokes with no idea how.
