Germano Mosconi

Germano Mosconi is a sports journalist and former television anchorman, who's became very popular in 2004, when he was the subject of an anonymous Internet video that made him known all over Italy and around the world.

The videos shows some of his off-air bloopers, featuring his irate reactions to various problems (people unexpectedly entering the studio, various noises, illegible writing on the news sheets he receives, or simply his lapsus linguae). The ample use of swearwords, blasphemy, insults and other rude language both in Italian and Venetian, as well as other humorous antics, have made this video into a viral video. Very quickly, many Internet forums discussing Mosconi appeared, as well as fan clubs in Italy and in other countries, and comic cartoons featuring Mosconi's voice.

Germano Mosconi did not like the fame of the videos on the internet, even if the colleague Loenzo Roata commented on the fact: "They put him to shame […]. To make him angry the technicians organizers a lot of jokes […]. Mounted in this way, seem to pictures of a man who has spent his life to curse."

A great sum up of all this can be found in the Italian version of Uncyclopedia: Nonciclopedia
