MEDIA: my relationship with media

what do ı watch on the television? this question is related to my perception about television. ı think there is no definite explanation or aim of the television such that it should educate the people or something like that. there are various types of channels and programs. everybody can find a program that is in his/her interest. ı choose television program according to my mood. they are films, music channels, documentaries, series, some of the discussion programs and programs that introduce us other parts of the world and other people' life( this may be called documentary, too). as you realized that, there are not limited, ı watch almost all types of programs but except some of them such that marriage programs, morning programs( it may be wrong,ı don' t know the actual word) and some contests. ı consume some of those programs such as contest or series to spend the time.(by the way television is used by people mostly to spend the time. because if they have got something to do they do not need to watch) but ı think documentaries are beneficial for me and also it is enjoyable if it is in my interests. for example ı like especially scientific documentaries. as we all know media has huge effect on human beings. ı think it is controversy that if it is harmful for people. in some cases it may be harmful. for instance, media expose people who is criminal of rape. it may be seen that media do this to warn people, ... but after that news, they say that he was punish for a very very short time that released. then, what is the role of media in here. this encourages people who can do the same. if it is not encouraging, it does not frighten them. because there is nothing that they will use at the end of. ı don't like media in terms of such cases. in contrast, media may enlighten society and bring new view points as we all know.
