While TV has been blamed for many of society’s failings, especially as a time
consumer for the masses, it might also be the source of many of our ideas and
information. Arguably, the ideas and information may be suspect in terms of quality
and value but TV has probably become a major focal point in most homes
throughout the west. If this is the case then it can be argued that Television viewing
of positive programming is likely to improve family communication by supplying
stimulating and thought provoking ideas and information.
