[00:33.97]Our history will be what we make of it.
[00:37.04]
[00:40.83]and there should be preserved the kinescopes of one week of all three networks.
[00:45.54]They will there find, recorded in black and white and in color, evidence of decadence, escapism, and insulation from the realities of the world in which we live.
[01:00.29]We are currently wealthy, fat, comfortable, and complacent.
[01:04.94]We have a built-in allergy to unpleasant or disturbing information.
[01:08.88]Our mass media reflect this.
[01:12.05]But unless we get up off our fat surpluses and recognize that television in the main is being used to distract, delude, amuse, and insulate us,
[01:21.45]then history will take its revenge and retribution will not limp in catching up with us.
[02:20.13]Ah, yes, it may be that the human race is doomed, never to learn from its mistakes.
[02:25.90]We are the only animals on this globe who periodically set out to slaughter each other.
[02:33.34]for the best, the noblest, the most inescapable of reasons.
[02:38.38]We know better.
[02:39.95]But we do it again and again in generation after generation.
[02:46.66]It may be that our empire, too, is doomed - like all those that have gone before it,
[02:53.00]to continue to spew and waste its best blood on foreign soil,
[02:59.16]no matter what we say or do in this place, or think, or believe, or have learned from history.
[03:07.69]But, thank God for us.
