PM Silvio Berlusconi called a live TV talk show and traded insults with its host Gad Lerner, calling the program a "brothel".
"I've been watching a disgusting show, conducted in a despicable, vile and repugnant way," Berlusconi said.
"The reality that has been represented here is the opposite of the truth and I feel insulted," Berlusconi said. "I know what I'm saying, you don't," he told Lerner. He also urged his ally in the studio of independent channel La7 to leave this "incredible TV brothel".
Berlusconi, 74, has so far refused a summons by Milan prosecutors in an investigation for allegedly paying for sex with a 17-year-old girl and covering it up.
