Modern Television Lately television has been criticized for being a threat
to the society as it shows too much sex and violence.
There are too many war films and, even worse, too many
stories about secret agents, criminals and the police,
who shoot people as if they were rabbits. Naturally, a
lot of people don't want television to show sex, violence
and cruelty. They say such programmes, if they have to
be shown at all, should never be run at prime time, which is the most popular
for watching television or any other time when children can see them.
People also criticize bad-taste programmes where rude jokes are made, bad lan-
guage is used or where people are made to fight over a sum of money forgetting
all shame or programmes spying on people at the most intimate ['intimat] mo-
ments of their lives. Such programmes give examples of humiliation and bad
taste.
Some political TV programmes introduce the views and ideas of one group of
people instead of speaking about different views.
More than anything TV viewers dislike TV commercials that can spoil the
impression of any programme.​
