*** g78 4/22 p. 7 How Television Can Hurt ***
How Television Can Hurt
AT ONE time, some researchers thought that television programs did not have any lasting negative influence. A few even claimed that programs featuring violence could help by serving as "safety valves," helping to curb such tendencies in people.
But that was before there had been enough time to analyze the effects of the viewing of TV programs for years. Now, prolonged studies almost unanimously agree that, when improperly used, TV can hurt, and hurt badly.
It Does Influence
The claim that a steady diet of TV programs featuring violence, depravity and immorality has little or no effect does not stand up to scrutiny. If this is so, then why do companies spend billions of dollars advertising their products and services on TV?
These advertisers know that TV, as a medium of communication, has a profound effect. Their advertising conditions people mentally so that they will buy their products. Surely, the commercial leaders of the world are not so simple-minded as to throw away money if TV advertising has little or no effect.
The same is the case with the content of TV programs. People are bound to be influenced one way or another by spending large amounts of time watching them.
To say that a steady diet of bad TV programs has little effect on the mind is like saying that a steady diet of bad food has little effect on the body’s health. To a large extent, your body’s health depends upon good food. Eat bad food long enough and your health will be damaged. In the same way, your mental health is largely determined by what you feed your mind. Too much bad mental food over a long period of time can adversely affect your mind.

*** g78 4/22 p. 4 What Are People Saying About Television? ***
What Kind of Influence?
Because of television’s influence, some people are saying that it can be blamed for many of this world’s ills. An editorial by William Shannon in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer declared: "If we are a less happy, less confident, less intelligent people than we were 30 years ago, a generation of television watching is largely responsible."
In the book The Plug-in Drug, author Marie Winn claims that television is largely responsible for a serious decline in reading and writing skills, the tearing apart of the family, the rise of the drug culture, the emergence of a new breed of vicious young criminals, and a generation of children suffering from no less than an imbalance of the mind.
A family man in the United States said: "I am old enough to remember when families or children didn’t have television. I believe television has been one of the most damaging influences to the modern-day family. The extent of the damage is now becoming more evident."
In Japan, Mrs. Kimiko Takisawa, a leader of the Society for Responsible Television, said that TV has "brought about our cultural destruction." And the Melbourne, Australia, Sun reported: "Television viewing can have the same effect as severe brain damage."

*** g74 9/8 p. 11 The Impact of TV ***
Another problem is that very young children believe what they see on TV; they do not distinguish between reality and a make-believe world. Youngsters also have difficulty relating events to context. How are they affected, for instance, when they see a "good guy" doing something bad? A code adopted in Great Britain to curb the amount of violence on television specified: "Good men doing evil things to secure a good purpose provide a bad message to young children."
*** w88 8/1 pp. 11-12 pars. 8-9 Parents—Reach Your Child’s Heart From Infancy ***
They use television as a baby-sitter. "Not now, honey. I’m busy. Go watch television," they tell their children. [What better way to brainwash and get free baby sitting. Would you let the GB watch your kids?????]
A prominent television broadcaster says that these are "the most often spoken words in many American households." And yet sending children off to watch whatever may be on television amounts, in effect, to letting them on the loose. (Proverbs 29:15) It constitutes a sad neglect of parental responsibility. As this broadcaster noted regarding raising children: "It is time consuming and a great responsibility this parenting business and it may not be delegated, certainly not to the television set."
9 However, because of the pressure of the times in which we live, you may be inclined, as the disciples were, to turn children aside so that you can attend to what may be thought of as more important business. But what is more important than your own children? Their spiritual lives are at stake! You may recall that when the Chernobyl nuclear accident occurred in the Soviet Union in 1986, children were removed from the region to protect them from the pollution. Similarly, if you are to guard the spiritual health of your children, you need to protect them from the world’s poisonous "air," which is so often spewed out from the television set.—Proverbs 13:20.
