Everyone seems to be talking about LBC’s new studio and branding. And while discussing the new colors they have chosen, the station decided to poke fun at the gangster-like appropriation of colors by Lebanese political parties.

We could use a lot more making fun of Lebanese politicians and their bankrupt, feudalistic, divisive, self-serving, egotistical political strategies. Maybe then more Lebanese will begin to wake up and smell their failures.
