No point bellyaching about who has to make the 'big sacrifice':
USA networks are well position to supply services, to assist in 
leading the charge against starvation, and regard it as their 
honor and privilege to so participate, in tight formation with 
affiliates (includes Russians, Chinese... -- not necessarily
talking your favorite brand of religio-politics here, whatever
that might be).

The only 'cut' the 'fat cats' need to take is to once again 
recognize the brute fact that 'having a ton of money in the 
bank', in and of itself, is not a criterion when it comes to 
assessing how much respect and authority a player receives.  
But that was never the American dream in any case (the 'land
of opportunity' has always stood for so much more), so I don't 
think I'm saying anything new here.
