indeed, America’s media seem to be owned by only 5 corporations, all of which
have sponsored the current president’s campaign. Freedom of speech may well be
something which does not exist any longer in your country, as a well-informed
friend (named Paul) tells me. Sad. He states that unless you get your
informations through the web or speak foreign languages, as an American, you
are no longer informed objectively.<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

about radical democracy but I did feel pretty angry about this story- if anyone

why you may never see the greatest ad ever made... <br>
...<br>
the eye-catching opening second: ten-year olds working in a steelworks<br>
<br>
cut several times to other big industry factory lines peopled by kids<br>
<br>
no words just ominous sounding music for 20 seconds<br>
<br>
then silence and 10 seconds for the caption :<br>
<br>
who else did you think would be paying back America's debt?<br>
<br>
-----------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
If not the world's biggest conversation, I would have thought this should be
one of America's biggest. But apparently CBS won't screen it even though
American people have collected to pay the money their superbowl rate card
demands. Unless there is an explanation that's currently alluding my grey
cells, I conclude CBS and parent viacom don't believe in freedom of speech<br>
<br>
A few years ago the idea that the public could rate a global empire the size of
Andersen as too untrustworthy to be worth having around seemed unlikely. From
all our research at Beyond-Branding, it seems time to rip down a big networked
media company. Perhaps CBS is the goat that needs to be sacrificed; its not this
company's first offence against public decency as the documentary on who tried
to block freedom of speech in exposing how much tobacco companies new about
addiction to deadly habits showed.<br>
<br>
You can vote for the future of CBS here. http://www.fastcompany.com/poll/?x=1127<br>
