| [00:05.91]2005 [00:08.03]It is not easy to talk about the role of the mass media [00:11.05]in this overwhelmingly significant phase in European history. [00:15.56]History and news become confused, [00:18.08]and one's impressions tend to be a mixture [00:20.69]of skepticism and optimism. [00:23.02](1)<Television is one of the means by which these feelings [00:26.15]are created and conveyed [00:28.16]--and perhaps never before has it served so much [00:30.86]to connect different peoples and nations [00:33.69]as in the recent events in Europe.> [00:36.32]The Europe that is now forming [00:37.93]cannot be anything other than its peoples, [00:40.55]their cultures and national identities. [00:43.38]With this in mind we can begin to analyze [00:45.90]the European television scene. [00:48.41](2)<In Europe, as elsewhere, [00:49.91]multi-media groups have been increasingly successful; [00:53.13]groups which bring together television, radio, [00:56.36]newspapers, magazines and publishing houses [01:00.08]that work in relation to one another.> [01:02.60]One Italian example would be the Berlusconi group, [01:06.24]while abroad Maxwell and Murdoch come to mind. [01:09.86]Clearly, only the biggest and most flexible television companies [01:13.50]are going to be able to compete in such a rich [01:16.54]and hotly-contested market. [01:19.06](3)<This alone demonstrates [01:20.23]that the television business [01:21.94]is not an easy world to survive in, [01:24.48]a fact underlined by statistics [01:26.80]that show that out of eighty European television networks, [01:30.83]no less than 50% took a loss in 1989.> [01:34.96]Moreover, the integration of the European community [01:38.08]will oblige television companies to cooperate more closely [01:42.02]in terms of both production and distribution. [01:45.44](4)<Creating a "European identity" [01:47.56]that respects the different cultures and traditions [01:50.39]which go to make up the connecting fabric of the Old Continent [01:54.61]is no easy task and demands a strategic choice> [01:58.85]--that of producing programs in Europe for Europe. [02:02.79]This entails reducing our dependence [02:04.81]on the North American market, [02:06.82]whose programs relate to experiences [02:09.22]and cultural traditions which are different from our own. [02:12.25]在线英语听力室(www.tingroom.com)友情制作 [02:12.85]In order to achieve these objectives, [02:15.17]we must concentrate more on co-productions, [02:18.10]the exchange of news, [02:19.68]documentary services and training. [02:22.39]This also involves the agreements [02:24.41]between European countries for the creation [02:26.73]of a European bank for Television Production which, [02:30.97]on the model of the European Investments Bank, [02:33.98]will handle the finances necessary for production costs. [02:37.91](5)<In dealing with a challenge on such a scale, [02:40.54]it is no exaggeration to say, [02:42.65]"United we stand, divided we fall"> [02:46.18]--and if I had to choose a slogan [02:48.20]it would be "Unity in our diversity." [02:51.52]A unity of objectives that nonetheless respect [02:54.35]the varied peculiarities of each country. |
