Does Television make a good slave for a bad master?
Chris R asked:
Whenever I’m watching television news it is always the same old thing; war, murder, rape, extreme violence that you wouldn’t be allowed to see in a movie theatre, but yet it is flashed upon our screens every night. It is like the book nineteen eighty four when everyone gathers around the screen for hate: a shot boat load of refugees cut to mass graves in Africa cut to a bombed out market in Israel. Of course these are issues that we should not turn a blind eye to- it is important that we are concerned by these issues, but why then when it comes to issues of sexuality or just sex in general does the media seems to be so fridged.

The topic is difficult to report on because the topic is so diverse what may interest you would bore or even bother someone else violence sells everything else violence gets higher ratings violence sells everything else violence gets higher.
