But I would ask why it's not in their interest. I would argue it is in their interest, because their mandate says regions are important, and their goal is to create the best programming possible. It's the opposite of a creative compromise. Moving outside augments and enhances their programming.
The only reason it isn't in their interest may be financial, and I don't buy that, because it's actually cheaper to produce in the regions. So I'm not sure why it isn't in their interest. I think I'm trying to work toward a model where it is in their interest, where doing their job well involves working with the regions.
