Cultural Imperialism?

It's nothing new that American and Western culture have been dominant for a long while.

I have learned about MTV in my RTF class briefly but it is very true that about eighty percent of its viewership is outside the United States. MTV is especially popular in Asia and each country in this region has its own programming that is a a good mix of American programs and the country's own programs. Yet they are constantly influenced and exposed by the American culture whether it is doing good deeds or not. 

English is has also become the global universal language and it is becoming the common language. More and more country accept English as one of its official languages to my knowledge. Might as well declare English as the official language of the world? or is it already? However I do not believe it is ever going to happen since the French, Russian, and Chinese are not likely to give in. But if we have just one language in the world, it will make communication around the world so much more convenient.
