It lacks faith, but it also lacks a robust free market. With the deregulation of the industry from the 1970s on, media has become a cartel of only a handful of companies owning every major studio.

These firms are risk averse and mainly motivated to deliver shareholder value. That translates into banal, boring films, books, and everything else creative. So in addition to rediscovering core values, we need a bust-up of all the entertainment trusts, to restore better artistic competition and fairness
