    I'm starting to like this guy.

    What an idiot of an interviewer.

    She got what she deserved.

    60 Minutes wallowing in the mud with the info-tainment shows. Quality "hard" news show.

          You all have it backwards: Sarkozy is a big wuss. An adult would have just moved on to the next subject, but like the infantile wuss that he is he got all pissy and left. Even the Dark Lord Cheney managed to tough it out when asked about his lesbian daughter.

          The interview was taped BEFORE the divorce was announced, btw...

            totally unrelated. the cheney issue is a political matter due to bush's stance on gray marriage.

              That would be encouraging the journalists to stick with asking stupid, personal questions rather than pertinent, political questions.

              Serious journalists shouldn't be reporting things the public wants to know (that's for the entertainment business), but what the public should know.

                It's part of the constitutional duties of the French President to do interviews with 60 minutes about their personal relationship issues...

                  What does that have to do with it? The man doesn't want to discuss his private life. That should have been enough for the interviewer to stop asking, since it's none of her business anyway.
                  Sarkozy is right to walk out on an intervieuwer that finds his personal agony in his marriage (which was probably present before the actual divorce ) more important than his policies as president.

                  And the intervieuwer is an ignoramus as it was clear from the outset Sarkozy was not too keen on the intervieuw in the first place, so it's increadibly dumb (not to say highly unprofessional) not to get the -not too subtly hidden- hint that he had no inclination to discuss 'Cecilia' with her.

                    Particularly since she was told UP FRONT before the interview this area of questioning was off limits. Rather than ask questions of policy she went for dirt.

                    Wake up people. Media is part of the problem...

                      Well, maybe the punk intervoyeur "journalist" felt lucky - just too bad she didn't count right

                      Though, I find it a bit weird to see a french politician showing he has balls

                        All the more reason a true journalist would have asked some serious policy questions. Sarkozy does not come across as a typical French politician in many respects.

                          Bah. Marriage should be between a human and a human.

                            Yeah, one would have thought this would be more interesting :
