Guys and girls...this is from a really cool tv show called Le Iene...in other words...the hyenas!!
Basically it's a group of guys and a girl or two who go around picking on everything and anything that doesn't look right...plenty of that going on in italy. They hang around outside the p;arliament building a lot asking uncomfortable questions nobody wants to answer. For example last year they secretly tested parliamentary members for drug use thrgough some cartridge you hold in your hand while you shake hands and a discovered an insanely high use of cocaine and marijuana amongst them. they advertised the fact but then werent allowed to show it because parliament passed some law in a hurry about privacy...it was a huge scandal. iene then accused then of double standards as they'd done exactly the same thing a few months previously with kids coming out of a discotheque and nobody had worried about privacy then.
Anyway it's serious stuff but the do it in a fun way..not taking themselves too seriously. All the 'iene' are instantly recogniseable because they all wear black suits and black ties. They also do some really fun stuff on their show...most notably the 'doppia intervista' (double interview) where two politicians, sportsmen, actors etc...very often rivals, have to answer the same set of questions about general fun stuff, serios stuff and each other.
The most famous of these is the doppia intervista with Rossi and Biaggi at the peak of their rivalry...it's on youtube.
