From then on, every U.S. President has been an actor, musician or other non-political celebrity prior to entering politics, the entire U.S. Senate is made up of celebrities, and this craze has spread to other nations as well.

With the continuing poor distribution of Cardcaptors, the English dub of Cardcaptor Sakura due to Warner and Disney, we wait for admittance from the offending parties. But what if the whistle was blown, and at a early stage. This althistory can start between 2001-2002 (Where CC started airing in the UK with 65 episodes) and it should involve the scandal being uncovered (Use your imagination in terms of who and what blows the whistle), and what happens to the parties involved (Warner and Disney as well as the presumed victims, CLAMP,Madhouse, Kodansha and Nelvana), plus what happens to the whole anime industry (There may be further investigations into poor distribution and there could be effects on trading between Japan and the USA.) (This is a "economic" althistroy and so political implications should not be the focal point)
