46.电视是创造和传递感情的手段之一。也许在此之前，就加强不

同的民族和国

家之间的联系而言，电视还从来没有像在最近的欧洲事件中起过

如此大的作用。

47.多媒体集团在欧洲就像在其他地方一样越来越成功了。这些集

团把相互关系

密切的电视台、电台、报纸、杂志、出版社整合到了一起。

48.仅这一点就表明在电视行业不是一个容易生存的领域。这个事

实通过统计数

字一目了然，统计表明在80家欧洲电视网中1989年出现亏损的

不少于50%。

49.创造一个尊重不同文化和传统的“欧洲统一体”绝非易事，需

要战略性选择。

正是这些文化和传统组成了连接欧洲大陆的纽带。

50.在应付一个如此规模的挑战过程中，我们可以毫不夸张地说，

“团结，我们

就会站起来；分裂，我们就会倒下去。”
