Reality TV in Society

Reality TV in Society

  Recently there are many realities TV shows appear on television, at start I never pay attention on it, but with the discussion among friends I watched some realities TV shows. I don’t think the realities TV is good us, at less is not good for me.

  At the first reason of the reality TV that not good for children. The influence of television on children today is increasingly, children not only through the television to understand this society, more like direct imitation of TV characters. Imitation is the nature of children; show the actual for children provides the most direct imitation model. In the children's understanding of the world and the ability to judge a society is still in the embryonic stage, value system, their consumption concept, evaluation system is decided by the whole social cultural atmosphere, of course, depends largely on their exposure to TV programs. Such as that reality TV named “Rich kids of Beverly Hills”, in fact, I think the show is very Ignorant, for me, I never liked being on the living environment or shooting. Many teenagers watch this program will more to imitate, to pursue the same level of life, inevitably there will be crime factors, the impact is not good, similar to flaunt wealth.

  Now there are also many violent erotic reality shows on TV, such as that “Teen Mom”, we first regardless of truth in the reality shows, just these shows included many violence and salacity. Watch TV violence increases children's aggressive tendency, this tendency to stimulate their interest in the television violence, in turn, further increases the attack behavior. Because the audience violence aesthetic once excited, acceptance, demand will continue to strengthen, tolerance enhancement. Social ethics if not given the proper restraint, like a patient who had drug resistance is serious, and then the final result will be regarded as hopeless, past hope.

I am not against reality show this type of program, I just want reality TV is show for the audience more active, but not by sex violence flaunt wealth way to attract the attention of the audience but ignores the influence caused by the program.

Television Makes Us Smarter

Television Makes Us Smarter

 

 

  Television around us everywhere, we can watch the television at home, at restaurant, in the subway, and also we can watch in the malls, there have much kind of television shows, such as entertainment shows, quiz shoes, reality shows and television series. Since childhood we touch it every day. And I think television can makes us smarter.

  We both know that baby needs early prenatal education in the person who is pregnant, the pregnant women is suitable for listening music and reading some articles, also need “watch television”, television makes some voice like a story can though the mother pass to baby’s brain, then can make baby start to touch it, that is consciousness of enlightenment, can help the baby who after born easy to connect this new world.

  In my experience there are many knowledge I learn it from television. Maybe it was a careless glance, the television caught my attention, and then I would have interest on it and study something from it. Sometimes are some small life skills, sometimes are the histories for the world, and sometimes is the scientific knowledge propagation. Most of the time the accumulation of knowledge is so careless a bit, television can let me learn a lot of things that not talked about it in class. In recently, I prefer watch the detective investigation type of television shows, such as CSI and Criminal Minds. I’m so glad there have many sessions!! I can enjoy it for long time; every time I watched it maybe I can’t remember all the skills and knowledge, but I try my best to understand and remember those skills which I have interest on it. The change of the body after death, when the body will be hardening, when the body will have a spot, and different direction of blood of the attacks. Its sounds crazy but I really have interesting. Maybe those skills can’t use in the real life, but I can know some famous cases and the culture of this country.

  Absolutely, television can make us smarter and give us a nice choice for pass the leisure time.  

Media Habits

Media Habits

 

  “Maintaining control over one’s media habits is more of a challenge today than it has ever been” from “Television Addiction Is No Mere Metaphor”. In my daily life I have many misgiving about my media habits, such as online activities and video game playing. Every day I used to check my social networking, look at my friends Facebook or Weibo (seems Facebook in China), I know it’s not necessary to do it, but it’s just a habit. Anther media habit is video game playing; this is a bad habit for me I swear, because I always for video game spend a lot of time, and sometimes forget the clock to go sleep. All the things I know I should control my time to cost on it, but it’s not work, before sleep and after wake up the first thing must be check my social networking, seemingly ordinary social networking has inevitably become a part of my life. Those are the media habits.

  Even though sometimes I would like to control those habits, it’s always not work, such as I try to leave my social networking just one day, but just one-hour, I felt uneasiness and no interest to do other things. I think the media habits are become the obsession for me, compel me to use it, even then no worth but I still spend time on it, if I really want to control it, maybe the only way can to it is throw me into the mountains which is no signal networks. This is the bad of media habits, but meantime this is the power of media habits.
