二战前后,美国为了达到操纵他国政治和经济的目的,不断向第三世界国家输入垄断资本和资本主义的体制,从而将资本主义霸权体系的发展推向了一个更高的阶段。在此阶段,美国对菲律宾实行的政策堪称这种战略的典型代表,这就是对菲律宾从政治到文化均实行有效的控制。在这种情况下,菲律宾的媒介因受美国的影响,也形成了它鲜明的特点,集中地体现了整个国家的“美国情调”。 Before and after World War II, in order to reach the goal of manipulating the political and economic affairs of other countries, the United States constantly imported the system of monopoly capital and capitalism into the third world countries and pushed the development of the capitalist hegemony system to a higher stage. At this stage, the U.S. policy on the Philippines can be regarded as the typical representative of this strategy, which is to exert effective control over the Philippines from politics to culture. Under such circumstances, the Philippine media, influenced by the United States, has also formed its distinctive features and embodied the “American flavor” of the entire country.
