Hi Folks,
If you got time for a laugh ... Here is an example of what we can see on
Canal + , a french TV channel. Shows somehow how Corporate America is seen
in Europe (on mainstream TV channel broadcasted in Europe)
http://www.canalplus.fr/comedie/emissions/guignol/guignol_jt.asp
Ok, you go to the website and you pick " Vendredi 4 mai 2001 "
Then you play it. Problem is that you gonna have to wait for a small minute
of european satirical news, before the " Charity Business " section comes !
Read this before:
Little explanation if you are interested : This program is called "
Guignols " , moderately satirical. Sylvester Stallone embodies the World
Company, in other words the American Multinational Corporations. It has
become a main character now, and he works generally with clones of
himself. ... You can see the US President as well in the video.
Well, if you still stand this, check out the " Vendredi 13 avril 2001 " .
Some ad about Death Penalty (& culture), but mostly in French ... of
debatable taste, but if you understand some french, that helps.
