My objection on PPV coverage is that it would be maximized for the gore and purely for sport and entertainment.

I wouldnt!
Because unlike most Americans, I know they already should be disgruntled that a huge chunk of their income (half their paychecks?) goes into FUNDING all those US invasions, Nukes/DU WMDs, and installations of US military bases, virtually everywhere except in China.

I would rather see something like the movie "Rollerball" remember that one? No innocent people killed, just nation states fighting against each other with a sanctioned sport event!
With the money we pay the military, we could pay these sport "fighters" millions of dollars and the country who wins the game, is the victor of the war......
Sounds much more humane and resonable compared to the wars of today, doesn't it?
You got it

But this time instead of the Colosseum we have the Interwebs to keep the masses passive.
Think about it.
