| Television Is WAR on Idle Minds |
| 11.11.03 (10:14 pm) [edit] |
Beware; the government uses television to keep calm, distract, scare, distort reality and keep us in check. The visual weapon takes our focus off of our children. We don't watch them and we don't watch what they view on the set.
We believe anything said on television[b]..."Its true, I saw it on TV."[/b]
Television reinforces middle-class amerikan behavior as correct and proper behavior which continues to confuse us and ruin our real relationships with self, friends, family, community and the globe. Television programs are fantasy (reality tv included), no one lives like that, so to model yourself after viction is to be a fool!
Stop using TV as your only source of information, its poison.
[u]Soap Operas:[/u] women watch these closer than their own relationships and learn that men like sit-com characters make better lovers and providers, plus it confirms the average Joe is not good enough. Remember, Soap Operas were created to sell household products, that's it.
[u]Cop Shows:[/u] allow us to think watch good cops fight bad people of color and take them to jail where they belong. They never show the false arrest, trumped up charges or excessive abuse.
[u]Judge Shows:[/u] encourages us to view the courts as friendly systems and we learn to trust that "judges" make the right decisions based on facts. Nevermind the fact that the ruling of many judges are frequently overturned in appealete court. That's to say nothing of the dozens of death row inmates that were later exonerated.
[u]Music Videos:[/u] The videos the children love are almost X-rated, exposing young people to pimping, stripping, hustling and on occasion, the lifestyles of the rich and famous. In rare instances, they view the never serious, always joking-clowning-playful-s afe Black man.
[u]News:[/u] gives no information that is positive, global or local. It programs fear in to the masses making elders afraid of their own grandchildren and neighborhoods. Nowadays it seems they are more interested in reporting on Benifer and other celebrity mishaps.
[u]Talk Shows:[/u] exploitive, all gays are flamers propaganda. Although it may be television's truest form (i.e., interacial dating, poor whites, racists, transgenedered, etc.) its the best promoter of the worst of mankind. Only here can we learn thatstripping is great as long as your in school and out of control children setting the worst example for all those children who [i]study[/i] TV to learn how to act.
[u]Sit-coms:[/u] always seems to depict Latino or Black males as players, thugs, flamers, cross-dressers, scared of things, trying to get sex, insulting to women and will lie to get out of trouble. Latina and Black women are usually depicted as angry, contolling, emasculating, with negative attitudes, romatically over aggressive, but one dimensional. Show after show, they're dressed in tight outfits and wear ugly fake-hair pieces to look like the white women who write the scripts they perform. Whites are all over television. The women are ultra skinny, attractive and smarter than the men. Sometimes they are mothers whom seem to preoccupied arguing with their clumsy, lazy husbands to care for the children.
This penning is not dedicated to the elimination of the television set. This is just a guide or talking points that express the power of the idiot tube. There are very meaningful, intelligent programs that appear on TV. Sadly, they are few and far between.
The people must stand up to the corporate-interest FCC and demand that congress restore regulations that will honor qualitative programming. Market competition will thrive through balance and I beleive the reverse is true as well. Media conglomeration will not benefit the public or the companies in the long run.
For now, idle minds are in the hands of FCC chairman Michael Powell and the corporate interests.

yes, and do you know that in a study done recently (i've got the article) ... those who watch fox news turn out to be the dumbest people (i.e. they answered the fewest factual questions correctly)

the media has indeed been bought lock-stock-and-barrel by corporations, which is why bush (who otherwise would have already been impeached for crimes against the u.s. constitution) has been let off the hook by the "corporate-take-all" robber-barons ... ONE MUST READ PRINT MEDIA & SEARCH HARD TO FIND THE TRUTH

Well, except for the skinny attractive women, TV is a bad thing ;)
American TV, and for the most part, cinema sucks becuase they are too afraid of offending people to do anything worth watching. An IMDB poll once asked: (paraphrase until I find it again) What is the most offensive thing to you in a movie?
Violence
Sex
Profanity
Drug Use
Politically Charged Material
And nothing got into double digits except for Politically Charged Material, which was well over 80%.
