TV and Radio

I think that TV and Radio are the most powerful means of Mass Media. Almost all people watch TV or listen to the radio for several hours. Many people watch news. There is a large choice of programs on TV. And every person can choose programs that he wants to watch. People watch TV or listen to the radio to entertain them or to learn some information. TV and Radio do many things. They reflect vital and present day problems; they raise questions and problems for discussion. And they affect various spheres of life.

TV and Radio include information to all tastes. Some programs teach us, inform, and entertain. And of course TV and Radio include effective advertisement. Every day we watch advertisement and it is not important for people who earn TV and radio stations if we want to watch it or we don’t. You can watch almost everything on TV: current affairs, documentaries, chat shows, quiz shows, a series, the arts, education programs, soap operas, sports, films, plays and of course news. TV creates many popular personalities: talk show hosts, singers and newsreaders. People prefer to watch programs with famous hosts, popular newsreaders and famous singers.

TV has good and bad sides. First of all it keeps people informed; we can learn a lot of information watching TV. We can choose programs that appeal to us more, because TV provides programs for all interests. Sometimes we can relax, entertain ourselves when we are tired. Advertisement on TV gives us information about different products and it makes easier to choose things to buy. When we watch TV we learn about the world, famous people and global or recent news. But TV has a lot of disadvantages. It takes a lot of time and it makes us lazy. And it’s very harmful for our health, especially eyes. Some violent programs and films make people violent. Violence becomes a vital problem. There is too much advertisement on TV. Sometimes it can encourage us to buy things we don’t need at all. Watching TV takes all free time from almost all people. We just watch it, not concentrate, and waste time.

In my opinion we need TV inspire of its disadvantages. People need something like information center. As for me I watch TV about one hour a day. I watch it when I want to learn news or relax and entertain myself. People need TV, but it can’t be the main thing in their life. It’s interesting, but not the main thing in our life. I don’t really know what we must do to make TV better. I think we can do-nothing. We just should not sit hour by hour watching TV. I think we must watch only the most important and interesting things. Because if we had seen everything, we’d become mad. I prefer TV to Radio because I want to watch but not only listen to programs. As for me I like that there is great choice of programs and wide range of topics and problems for discussion on TV. Some programs appeal to me most, some of them look attractive. And I enjoy watching some sensation news. I think it’s important to keep people informed about almost everything. People must know important information because they can use it in useful and right way. As for me I prefer watching news, films, and (sometimes horror ones). It is very interesting for me to watch news. And I like to watch films. I like actions, it can’t teach you, but it’s always interesting and exciting to watch some extraordinary people in some extraordinary TV has good and bad sides. We can learn a lot of information watching TV.
