1:03:03
But, man, you're never gonna get
any truth from us.
1:03:08
We'll tell you anything you wanna hear.
We lie like hell.
1:03:10
We'll tell you that Kojak
always gets the killer...
1:03:13
and that nobody ever gets cancer
in Archie Bunker's house.
1:03:17
And no matter how much trouble
the hero is in, don't worry.
1:03:19
Look at your watch.
At the end of the hour he'll win!
1:03:21
We'll tell you any shit
you want to hear!
1:03:25
We deal in illusions.
None of it is true!
1:03:29
But you people sit there,
day after day, night after night.
1:03:32
You're all ages, colors, creeds.
We're all you know.
1:03:37
You're beginning to believe
the illusions we're spinning here.
1:03:39
You're beginning to think the tube is
reality and your own lives are unreal.
1:03:43
You do whatever the tube tells you!
1:03:45
You dress like the tube,
eat like the tube...
1:03:47
raise your children like the tube,
even think like the tube.
1:03:50
This is mass madness, you maniacs!
1:03:54
In God's name, you people
are the real thing!
1:03:57
We are the illusion!
1:03:59
So turn off your television sets.
Turn them off right now.
1:04:03
Turn them off and leave them off.
1:04:05
Turn them off in the middle
of this sentence.
1:04:09
Turn them off!

UBS was running at a cash flow
of break-even point...
1:04:27
after taking into account $110 million
of negative cash flow from the network.
1:04:32
It was clear the fat on the network
had to be flitched off.
1:04:35
Please note an increase in projected
initial programming revenues...
1:04:38
in the amount of $21 million...
1:04:40
due to the phenomenal success
of the "Howard Beale Show."
1:04:45
I expect a positive cash flow
for the entire complex of 45 million...
1:04:50
achievable in this fiscal year...
1:04:52
a year, in short,
ahead of schedule.
1:04:55
Beyond that...
1:04:57
this network may be
the most significant profit center...
