On the other hand, workers are purging bosses associated with the old regime. On the French TV news "20 heures" (<www.france2.fr>) I saw a report on this by their correspondent Samah Soula singling out the "Star" insurance company and the daily newspaper "La Presse". In the letter, the journalists let the boss stay, but just to sign pay checks and similar stuff, to have somebody with rights to dispose of the newspaper's bank account (see also Stuart Munckton's message "Tunisia: Video captures workers expelling CEO over regime ties" dated Sun, 23 Jan 2011 18:40:16 +1100). We are living thru "February" in the Tunisian revolution. Will "October" come?
