This American Life
Rve programmes this week in which Ian Peacock attempts to understand America through its self-image on radio and television. Is it a country, an ideology, or just a chaos of cultures? 1: Meta-Manhattan. New York as seen on the Manhattan Neighborhood Network - four channels run entirely by local residents. Presenters include elderly opera fanatics, transsexuals, alleged neo-Nazis, Harlem bodybuilders and the mysterious Ozaro, who simply stares at the camera for half an hour. Here, free speech rules, and Woody Allen is nowhere in sight. Producer Ian Peacock
