What is this supposed to prove? That the US believes in the power of TV to influence a society? They sure have ample evidence of it's successes, seems like a pretty logical move to me.
Though, for you to take this as some sort of vindication of US foreign policy would be totally wacky. What the hell does an Afghan talk-show have to do with US military domination of most of the world?
'It's ok if they invade us, as long as the tv gets better'. I guess I could agree with that.
