Television and Society

In television and society, Marie Winn's paper "Television: Plug-in Drugs" stated that "Contribution to television's family life is ambiguous," focusing on the influence of television on American family life . She emphasizes the influence of media on children. She strongly opposed the negative effects of television, but she did not take into account all the benefits television brings to American families. The TV itself is neither bad nor bad.

Television may have positive and negative influences, and many studies have examined the impact of television on society, especially children and young people. The child's developmental level is an important factor that determines whether a television or other media has a positive or a negative influence. Watching television includes children's playing, reading, learning to talk, spending time with colleagues and family, speaking stories, participating in regular training.

The content of TV exposes society to negative images such as racial discrimination, gender discrimination, aggressive acts. Unfortunately, our society will never get rid of negative habits as evaluation is seen in the hero of television. The statistics are so bad because the future of television and the contents of that media are unknown. As we all know, the most isolated people among women and ethnic minorities are the people who watch television most, so they show bad examples to the audience. In addition, television is not the only media medium that portrays these bad habits. Movies and advertisements also play an important role. Therefore, we should not try to eliminate this problem, we need to take measures to deal with and understand these practices. Society must distinguish between the illusion created by the media and the reality of our lives.
