Brazilian radio commenter, showman and political figure From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Luiz Carlos Alborghetti (February 12, 1945 — December 9, 2009) was a Brazilian radio commenter, showman and political figure. He was a Conservative voice on the radio. Among his program casting characteristics, he was notable for some peculiar details: reading glasses, a pen in-between the fingers of his right hand, a facial towel hanging on his shoulders and (mainly) his acid, challenging speeches (regularly full of physical and verbal profanity) and a solid wood club which he ostentatiously used to smack on anything near him (mostly his table) when angered. After several months off-work for health treatment, Alborghetti died of lung cancer in December 2009, ending a 33-year career on radio and television.[1]
