The article discusses the battle over French television. France is both the laggard and the leader in this movement to privatize. Three years ago its television was still entirely public. France may not have enough advertising to support so much private television. The expensive stars not having carried with them a captive audience, La Cinq, a television channel, is in real financial trouble. A television, reflects a social system, and Europe will not be able to escape its future unless it forges a radically different society.
