Mayor Mike aka "Silvio": Contemptus ergo sum

"You are a..disgrace." At least on the surface, Mayor Mike may have a cleaner personal history than good old Silvio Berlusconi, his goombah-media-magnate in Itay, but they clearly share that odd trait of being media men who have contempt for the press that covers them.

I respectfully suggest as a reply:

Nihil tam munitum quod non expugnari pecunia possit.
Translation: "Nothing is so fortified that it can't be conquered with money." (Cicero)
