And then, give us a tax credit for exercising! ;)
England already has a tv tax.
Over here, the President NEEDS people watching The Obama Show. TV is a drug. It contains so much computer animation and distortion that I’d wager it puts the mind into a psychotropic state.
The people who work in the media study the work of Soviet and NAZI propagandists (Eisenstein and Reifenstahl are taught to those studying film, not so much Frank Capra who’s considered a square conservative fuddy duddy, who also made pro-US propaganda shorts during the war titled Why We Fight).
Whether the messages come in the program itself (Today, Morning Show, The View, Late Night, Daily Show, MTV Remembers The 90s, Law & Order, ...) or the advertising really doesn’t matter.
