First response.... "Dear God PLEASE don't make me ask my parents what they watched on TV!" But I sucked it up and ask for the sake of the grade! The resounding answer was.. .YES TV has changed and not for the better. The only thing that we can agree on is that Seinfeld is a good TV program... Guess what they had to say..... " Too much violence, too much sex... too much reality TV!" Nothing surprising in this assignment... Well... all I can say is that I still see my parents sitting on the couch every night watching plenty of today's corruption! My mother lives for Glee and American Idol and Pops doesn't miss an episode of the Big Bang Theory or Hawaii 50... so I guess our generation has been a bad influence on our parents.
Question.... Is society a reflection of media or media a reflection of society? It's the ever confusing Chicken or the Egg question......
