What is your opinion about television and media's influence on America's!


Question: I can't help but shake my head in shame when I see what shows are geared towards teenagers nowadays... I think channels like MTV and VH1 are the demise of our youth!! You have shows like "the real world" which actually used to be clever, but now it's just about watching rich spoiled (mostly) white kids fight over the most ridiculous things.. And you have shows like "NEXT" where you have gays stereotyped and girls looking like little whores and the guys are all sex crazed too, self centered tools! "my super sweet 16" needs no explanation.. i can't even believe it's a show! And VH1 is even worse!!! "Flava of love"?? gimme a break.. that guy is a nasty monkey.. "I love New York".. that girl is a pitiful excuse for a human.

I know I'm totally ranting.. but my point is that television has absolutely made it a goal to provide people with ridiculous shows. It just promotes materialism and vanity.. "The Hills"? Gimme a break... It makes me angry that people even watch!

If the Hills makes you angry, you apparently haven't seen Gossip Girls.

I agree that Tv influences teens and adults nowdays. It's a shame that in our current society, it seems, the average American cannot think for themselves they have to go to a computer to tell them what to do. ( have you ever gone to a fast food place or supermarket nd the register breaks dow...they don't know how to figure out how much change to give back). They also lack respect for themselves and others.

When you walk down any street, count how many people are on their cell phones speaking in a loud voice, how many teens and adults are cursing (no matter whose around), the clothing these girls (and adults) wear to look like video ho's. You even have babies looking like little hookers..it's a shame.

It makes me frightened about our future and if I even want to be here for it. I fear it will have to rain 40 days and 40 nights again to clean this world up.

Merry Christmas :)

i couldn't agree more. there's a reason why there's so much bulls*** all over. tv is so full of propoganda to get people's minds off of what is actually going on in this evil world. even the news is corrupt. they only show people what they want them to see; what they want them to believe is truth. and people are so quick to soak it in and believe that it's reality. like 9-11, there were people on the news like right after it happened.. "witnesses" they call themselves. even only minutes after the buildings were hit, these "witnesses" were saying things over the news that are most impossible to know unless they knew about it before. the government is in control of what we see. they lie, the steal, they enslave, they are holding so many secrets. it's PROPOGANDA. that's why the word exists, i just wish people could OPEN THEIR EYES AND SEE THE LIES YOU'RE BEING TOLD!

those programs on mtv are totally wretched, and are there to suck in people's brains to get their minds off of all the people suffering all over the world. seriously, like on those shows these people's lives are "ruined" because they are having a problem with their boyfriend, or they didn't get what they wanted from their mommy or daddy, and it's portrayed so dramatically!! as if there aren't people being kidnapped and raped and sold for sex and killed and tortured and beat, and starving and dying of diseases and so many other unimaginable things all over the world!! it's insanity, and people are so ignorant. thank you for posting this question. it's good to know there are aware people in this world.
