"Mr President, the fundamental problem in this audiovisual debate is that we do not dare to define the quality we want to protect. When we talk about European works, for example, we include completely ridiculous talk shows, under the pretext that they are European productions. Until we have the courage to define what a work is – and that is where Mrs Fraisse is right – in other words, what it is that we want to protect, our television services will be unable to protect European production and European works in Europe for want of the appropriate instruments. Secondly, as regards concentration, the problem is very simple. If we do not define what we cannot democratically accept in Europe, there will be more and more concentration and non-European forces will dominate the market. For both these reasons, I believe that the European Union must have the courage to define what a work is and to define what should be the limit, democratically, between political power and the power of the media."@en1
