What is TV to our society now As the media industry developed, we now have more choices in terms of getting information and keep ourselves entertained. Television was one of the greatest inventions of the 20 century, it mainly has two roles which is to inform and to entertain. From my perspective, TV should be playing a critical role in news spreading than entertaining, here are some of my reasons. First of all, the audiences of TV is almost everyone in the society. Instead of playing as an entertainment media, it should act as a national channel that can educate people as well as establish a positive image of a country. Secondly, due to its attributions which be accessed to all group of ages, children should be more carefully considered as the main audience. Nowadays, there are many violent and sexual related scene can be found in a lot of TV programs which definitely has a negative impact on the young generation. In terms of how TV perform each role in an effective way, I think that TV is not effective in acting a role of informing. Now we are very easy to find that many TV channels have their own position towards news including international relations, political views or current social affairs which should be unbiased in the first place. In addition to this, TV should be objective towards facts, and the main purpose of news should lie in spreading the news instead of giving judgment based on some stereotypical opinions. In conclusion, I think there might be some regulations could be set to rule the news and media industry to better serve the people in the society and present them with a clear picture of fact, not some judgments without any solid grounds.

What is TV to our society now

As the media industry developed, we now have more choices in terms of getting information and keeping ourselves entertained. Television was one of the greatest inventions of the 20 century. It mainly has two roles: which is to inform and to entertain. From my perspective, TV should be playing a critical role in news spreading placing more emphasis on informing than entertaining. Here are some of my reasons.

First of all, the audiences of TV is almost everyone in the society. Instead of playing operating as an entertainment media, it should act as a national channel that can educate people as well as establish a positive image of a country. Secondly, due to its attributions which will be accessed to all groups of ages by groups of all ages, children should be more carefully considered as the main audience. Nowadays, there are many violent and sexual related scenes can be found in a lot of TV programs which definitely has a negative impact on the young generation.

In terms of how TV performs each role in an effective way, I think that TV is not effective in the acting a role of informing. It is nowadays we are very easy to find that many TV channels have their own position towards news including international relations, political views or current social affairs which should be unbiased in the first place. In addition to this, TV should be objective towards facts, and the main purpose of news should lie in spreading the news instead of giving judgment based on some stereotypical opinions.

Well done, LIn! Yes, I agree, TV programs should be censored because young minds are very vulnerable to the wrong kind of information and could reach wrong conclusions.

The thing you seem to be suggesting seems to be that of a totalitarian regime. I'm sad to say that due to the so-called notion of freedom we appear to have attained (or rather the one that was stuffed down our faces) the media is allowed freedom of speech and is therefore allowed to manipulate the masses with content that benefits their wallets. On the other hand, the public has the freedom to watch whatever they want and gladly due to the rise of the internet as a mass media device, people can educate themselves with whatever they seem fit to create their own personal view of a country or the world. We are living in times in which we have the freedom to create our own view on reality. I think this is the worldview that we are creating in contrast to the world that is being fed to us. The mass media displays content that sells. Sex sells, violence sells, fear sells. But we have a choice to ignore that. There is much more to the world than that and I firmly believe there is much more good happening in the world than bad, in contrast to what the mass media wants us to believe.
