OT: What's up with Network TV?

[JeffM]

Makes me think of the Palestinian rejection of partition in '48.

Why? The European Jews fought to get back property confiscated by the
Nazis and their descendants are still winning cases for its return
today. Aboriginal rights have been upheld in many countries, resulting
in compensation or the return of land confiscated hundreds of years ago.
Since the genocide of the Palestinians has failed (Israel has admitted
that they can't suppress Palestinian population growth within their
borders) so it is guaranteed that their descendants will survive to
reclaim their homeland.
Paul Hovnanian

I was thinking of the all-or-nothing thinking.
Having rejected sharing the land mass,
the Palestinians are into their 3rd generation of refugee status.
If they hope to get it all back, they have a long wait.
It is interesting that the Israelites, having been oppressed for so long,
have become the oppressors. Hmmm. Maybe you're right.

23 hours of crap, and one hour when you get to pick between the
only shows that are worth bothering to watch? (which means, of course,
that you can't see the other show, unless you're a very clever channel-
surfer, or have multiple video paraphernalia?)

Thanks,

It's called ad revenue.

What's worth watching on TV?

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
