In this episode Toby Miller and Dennis Broe discuss Trump's tariffs and their effect on the European and American audiovisual industry as well as the ways the American streamers continue to colonize European public television while seemingly, as Trump might say, ”making nice,” or appearing to cooperate.
Our guest is France 24 presenter Marjorie Paillon, a French analyst whose area is the interaction between American and European visual media and who raises the question of whether one of the goals of the Trump tariffs is to undercut European digital regulation.
