The influence of TV and movies

There is no doubt that watching TV and movies will affect people's behavior. In addition, people seem to spend more and more time watching some kind of visual entertainment, whether it is TV, video or DVD. Therefore, the influence of visual media can not be ignored.

An obvious effect of these media is that watching them will induce people to buy certain products. Television advertisements are very common. Now, even cinemas allow advertisements. Another way that TV and movies influence people is that they either give people a broader world view or a distorted world view according to the types of programs people watch. Those who watch news and educational programs can learn a lot of new things, while those who mainly watch entertainment programs may believe that most people in the world have great wealth and beautiful appearance. This may make them dissatisfied with their lives. Finally, perhaps the most vulnerable audience is children, who may not be able to distinguish between fact and fiction, and may try to imitate what they see on TV or in movies.

With the increasing popularity of video entertainment, society must pay attention to these influences. Although TV and movies are entertaining and informative, they cannot replace real experiences.
