American Television

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or television:

    I pledge you—I pledge myself to a new deal for the American people.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    So why do people keep on watching? The answer, by now, should be perfectly obvious: we love television because television brings us a world in which television does not exist. In fact, deep in their hearts, this is what the spuds crave most: a rich, new, participatory life.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
