Jon Stewart on TV programming, Wired magazine, Sep. 2005:
"I'd say 12 percent goodness, 83 percent crapola. I'm calling it the Goodness Therom. The goodness is a constant, like pi, and it stays that way. What heppens is, as the environment [the medium of TV] expands around it, the goodness expands at the exact same rate. So the ratio of goodness to crapola stays the same."
So, here is my question: does Jon Stewart's "Goodness Therom" work for anime? Please consider anime on american TV versus all anime available in U.S., as well as all anime available in U.S. versus all anime currently in existence. Or should we only apply the Goodness Therom to all TV, on every single channel in every single country of the world?
