In 1945, America took the baton of TV from Germany, built it out, programmed it to have programs just like America saw itself as, then, in 1963, started to become what it wanted America to follow and look like.
TV / Movies / Music / News / all forms of Media, Corporate concerns, segments of US / State / Local Governments all followed the Stars from Nov 22nd 1963.
As the World Turns = The day the Media/Hollywood became complicit. The day the corporate world became complicit. The killing of Kennedy.
That was the day our Government set sail from a representative Government to a treasonous enterprise of folly.
