    America came up with a television channel called “The Learning Channel.” It was dedicated to learning.

    Some years later, the current hottest show on TLC is a reality to show called “1000 pound sisters” which is in its second season. Google it.

    In just a few years we went from learning random stuff to a freak show designed to make even the lowest people feel superior to someone.

    • In Canada, these channels needed to have content that wasn't competing with existing channels to get approved. Once live they switched to whatever was cheapest.monNom
