Power can conquer territory. Intelligence builds alliances. As Joseph Nye argued, soft power rests on attraction, not coercion.
Force may impose obedience, but it cannot buy trust. A great power is not measured by how many nations fear it, but by how many choose to stand with it.

TV news is what happens between two advertising breaks.
That is the business model: television networks do not sell news to the public. They sell the public’s attention to advertisers.
The product is not just information.

O produto somos nós.
