For the Love and Hate of TV - Keanu Gomez



As the world continues to technologically progress, we see the growing television viewing population.  Along with this growth is the merging of television with our pop culture. Before, many people probably watched television as a source of news and information.  This has drastically changed ever since then. Television nowadays is more of a source of entertainment than anything else.  I believe that TV is a good source of entertainment. It can expand your perspective on things and let you dive into a journey that you couldn’t experience anywhere else. But yes, TV is also a very convenient way for advertisers to captivate the viewers’ attention. We see them take advantage of television. It is noticeable that different ads appear during different parts of the day or during special programming events. The advertisers cleverly select ads that would be more effective for the current audience. Even though ads have become ever more present in television today that is definitely not the only effect of TV. I enjoy watching mystery, action, and some comedy shows, but I am not a TV addict. If people watch TV on their spare time, then I would say that it is acceptable, but if TV has become an inseparable part of one’s life, then I would say that that is the point when it becomes an inane use of time.
