Violent Behavior and The Media
Neither the media, nor any solitary factor can be held responsible for irrational and violent behavior. ... Media can perhaps be a strong influence on your family perceptions, but is certainly not the only criteria involved. ... To take the case of a disturbed child who committed a violent crime and try to figure out exactly why is almost ridiculous. ... With the technology that we have today, violent video games have become so realistic that they are the closest thing to real life that any youngster should encounter. ... This is not the video games fault; we cannot put the entire blame on the media. ... When it all comes down to it, the media really doesn’t care if what they tell you is accurate, as long as you are interested. The media is nothing more than another form of entertainment and just another channel rating. ... The media will show whatever they know the viewer wants to see. ... Reality is violent TV shows.
