World Cup Runneth Over
We spend so much time consuming information about the changing business models in TV, that it’s easy to lose touch with the best part about the medium: At its core, television gives us a way to experience culture together, in real-time.
When hundreds of millions of people tune in to watch the same people chase the same ball, something else happens— there is an experience that crosses borders and gives us the chance to feel something together.
During times of war, tariffs and great upheaval, this World Cup in particular- with all the hilarious side bar fan activity on social, is giving America the chance to remind the world we are actually a kind, fun-loving and welcoming people—while also giving our populace a chance to see, despite our cultural differences, just how similar we humans all are.
We explore World Cup, and America through a few different lenses this week. Thanks for being here.
