Bad Impact of television on Society
After seeing the advantages of television, one would think it is a very good thing and does not have any negative points. But this is not the case. Everything has its own plus and negative points. The worst negative effect of this is on today’s society. Today’s generation is devoting most of its time on watching televisions. It is seeing whatever is coming on television without even thinking if is good or not. The dresses, the wordings, lyrics in few of the songs watched are vulgar. They have lost their direction. They are mixing their studies with the entertainment that is being shown on television. Sometimes there are 2 or 3 televisions in a house. Each room has its own television. Everyone gets busy in his room. Old aged people like to watch politics or religious serials, Youngsters want to see movies and songs, kids want to watch carton network, house wives watch serials on relations and kitchen. So in this way then have got more attached it the television. The time that a family used to devote in talking and eating together, now the television has snatches that. They hardly get any time to have any discussions. After seeing crime report channel many come to know the different way of doing crime. The crime has increased. The fashion has changed. People are following their favourite actor and actresses. They are spending money blindly to become like them. The society is not going in a right direction. Every thing is imitated from televisions which is not good sometimes or can say most of the time. So it’s the viewer who has to decide what he wants to do with television
