On the one hand television is
good, but on the other hand it is a bad
influence. In conclusion, in spite of being
a restricted place, the home, by the help of
television, may contain the whole world.
Television brings information and
entertainment to the home and by using this
means we don’t have to go out of the house.
Television is the “window” through which we
see reality, for example: wars, terrorism,
violence, crimes, discrimination, every kind
of stereotypes, preconceived ideas, racism,
xenophobia and sexism. We can escape from
reality through cartoons, music, films,
science fiction programmes, cultural
programmes, comedies and soap operas, this
is entertainment.
On the one hand television is good, but on
the other hand it is a bad influence. In
conclusion, in spite of being a restricted
place, the home, by the help of television,
may contain the whole world.
Television is an art form, through which the
ideas can be expressed to everyone. Then,
television is a means of communication and
everybody absorbs the information that the
“magic box” gives, so that we may know what
is happening around the world. We are always
watching television even during lunch time,
it is necessary and almost an obligation to
watch TV.
Of course some programmes can affect people,
because nowadays violence is getting more
and more common on television, even in
cartoons, and children are easily affected
and want to do what their “cartoon heroes”
do. Some movies can also affect us because
of the violence and other elements that
disturb people. Television can be a benefit
or not. There are some programmes that don’t
have a message and don’t contribute to
anything good to our society and there are
the programmes that give us important
information about the world.
