Your TV programmes will become like USA-TV (if it isn't already). The death of strictly non-commercial public broadcasting, and the invasion of USA-style Television is the death of your culture ... a cultural holocaust for the world.

Michael Tracey, who has studied this topic, gives an enlightning interview to a dutch TV-station (a public broadcaster). Michael Tracey is some kind of professor, Boulder Colorado and Manchester, England. He is an adviser to the European Broadcasting Commision, and talks about Rupert Murdoch, Silvio Berlusconi and John Malone, TCI the man WHO OWNS TED TURNER. American TV is in cultural terms as dangerous as the atom bomb, and he tell you why this is so.

Sorry for the quality, but it is simply the best compression.... If you listen to it on head-phones you will understand what he says. Should you need a good-quality copy of it email me. Please state your reasons and credentials, it is otherwise unlikely that I will answer. Better yet, get a copy of the interview from the dutch TV channel. I don't know which channel it was, or when it was broadcast (1994?)

To listen to the interview you'll need a TOOLVOX player, look on my audio-page for info on that.
