When entering any bar in Spain at any time of day or night, a television set will be noticed high up in one corner pulsating with hysterical sport commentaries, which will be zealously shouted down by the male customers drinking black coffee laced with brandy or anís. (Only four sports give rise to such fanatical enthusiasm – football, cycling, motor cycling and basket ball. Tennis and golf, which produce many Spanish champions, are regarded as too mild to generate passionate interest.)

“Newscasters, both male and female, are attractive and usually sound optimistic about the eventual outcome of even very bad events.”
