Switzerland is really worried about its image: not just good for hiding Romney’s money

Dedicated to promoting a positive image of Switzerland abroad, Presence Switzerland, has recently begun using state-of-the art technology – developed by a company which created a similar programme for Israeli security agency Mossad – to monitor when, why and by whom Switzerland is mentioned by foreign media outlets.
