Money rules, because it is expensive to get good media coverage. Perhaps European politicians have seen how much the media can influence elections. Take California, for example, in which a leading contender's primary qualification is that he is well known as an actor. Whoever controls/dominates the media controls the country. The politicians MUST bow to the wishes of the media, or else... I'll bet one of the first uses of this law will be to 'protect' the media industry - the future: you'll have to watch/listen to what they want, when they want, and how they want. <end rant> -- rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
