ObamaVision: Europe Doesn’t Mind Leftist American Cultural Imperialism

October 22nd, 2009 By: Michael van der Galien | Tags:

In my latest post for Andrew Breitbart’s Big Hollywood, I take a closer look at the Serve.gov initiative and explain how it will influence the way Europe looks at the U.S. and, especially, Obama.

Last week, Big Hollywood broke the news that the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF) has proved eager to obey the orders of President Obama. Instead of following the American president’s Serve.gov initiative critically, 60 network television programs (including news programs) have decided to embrace it and shove it down your throats.

As BH’s editor-in-chief John Nolte explained:

…tens, if not hundreds of millions of Americans, will be urged through the (ab)use of public airwaves to log on to the EIF iParticipate site and volunteer” this week.

A memo published by Big HollywoodBig Government and others, clearly shows the propaganda week was orchestrated by the White House and ‘fits into a broader White House plan, including the push to politicize the NEA, to redefine “art” as “service” and engage an all too compliant news, entertainment, and artistic community to start a volunteer army through these online portals.’

Although the EIF-scandal has been covered in depth here, on other blogs and by Fox, a question that has not been asked is how Europe will react to Obama’s massive liberal agenda? How will Europeans react to an obvious attempt to politicize art and the media? Will Europe react?

The last question has to be answered first, of course, and the answer is pretty simple: yes it will. If for nothing else, then because Obama continues to be adored by most of the European MSM. Everything he does is celebrated by our establishment journalists, who, like their American counterparts, pride themselves in being ‘tolerant,’ ‘compassionate’ and ‘reasonable.’ Keywords, of course, for leftists.
