Those who pay for it. Whoever they are. Whatever it is. Once you have
big money behind your goods you can afford big advertisting. What did
the tv talk about tonite (here)? Troy. Brad Pitt ludicrously
disguised as Achilles. A film that definitely smells of crap. Why?
Because the producers paid for it. US film industry has the big money
and can afford the big ads. People see that and buy. I guess the
mechanism is quite easy to grasp, isn't it? The same may be said for
other US cultural products. But we might get far from Pynchon and
near Berlusconi, and I prefer Pynchon.
