Oh, come on. Seriously? Film and TV are here to stay. Forever. All the non-parasites actually making film and TV are assured of continued employment.

All PG is talking about is taking out the parasitic channels and blocks that impede content from being made and enjoyed if they don't get their pound of flesh. All the arrogance that makes them demand not only that law be rewritten and diplomacy bound to their will, but that anybody daring to speak against them be castigated as enemies of democracy and capitalism and presumably Mom and apple pie.

They deserve to shuffle off into the dustbin - let's get back to having fun and making things. That's what PG is after, and he's right. Everybody knows the emperor's naked - those fat cats do nothing creative, and nothing to improve anything at all except their bank balances; they're rentiers so deeply to the core that they see nothing at all wrong with wanting their money back after buying the President of the United States when he failed to dance to their tune for three minutes this week.

Good riddance to the lot of them.
