Are we the toilet of the TV?

How TV changed over the years

Has TV really gotten worse? Or is it a device that still has got a reputation? Our generation, which is from the ’80s and ’90s,  remembers those years pleasantly. There was a TV full of good shows, but over these years we have realized that things got worse. We have fake news, click bating news, media instigating rather than giving information confirm this opinion. TV programs distract the audience from the real problems of the country.

As long as the internet became more social, we realized how TV has become more rubbish. Internet is not excluded as well, from the problems of the television. Rather, it does have more problems.

On the whole, it is, however, useful to make us less naive about what TV fobs us off with. We could think TV hasn’t gotten worse recently, but that it all started between the ’80s and ’90s. However, in my opinion, as we were a more naive audience, the authors of the shows were less cunning for fobbing us off with manipulative TV programs like today do. I can surely be wrong, but we can take a look around us and see the difference between our generation and the last one, trying to understand how TV influenced us.

Are we that kind of consumer that buys everything TV sells us? It was until about fifteen years ago when television started going this way. Talk shows where the guests always argues with each other just to raise the viewership; rubbish programs like Reality Shows with coarse language and scandalous situations which incite the curiosity of the audience; Newscasts more interested in talking about gossip than  information.

That was the time when TV started decaying. In the aftermath, however, part of the audience moved to the web, with all the consequences this entails. So, from one side, they had an overview of information and to the other side more doubts and misinformation to deal with. Anyway the audience purely faithful to television is considered the most plagiarized, especially by the ones which don’t use television as a main device for information. But what’s happening now? It seems like the last generation is more plagiarized by the web, instead of television, which offers more filters, though. As Always, who analyzes the problem from both sides makes the righter decision.
