Television Delivers People

This piece was simple but meaningful. I think its interesting that the presentation of this information was somewhat dark and dreary, it resembled one of those emergency announcements that come across the t.v. This could have been a representation of the fact that it is an emergency that we have become so consumed by the media, specifically the television, and we must acknowledge its occurance. I find it interesting that we are in some way funding the bombardment of media that we so often complain about. We complain about t.v, but then we want more, so they give us more and then its not enough, so we ask for more. It'll probably never stop.
We rely on the televsion to keep us connected with the world, the newspaper is slowly being phased out. We watch the news on the televison, the latest gossip, the latest issues or controversy we can observe on Oprah. I think that people, including myself, would be frightened if we acually counted the hours we watch t.v in one week.
