Modern people are exposed to many means of medias: newspapers, television, magazine and so on. Why people living in this world desperately feel that they need these media sources? The answer for this question is that people do get much more positive things out of media than negative ones. Movie and television, two major sources of media, is important in this respect since they offer people to means of entertainment in their daily lives. In addition, since these deal with social issues of the society, people are more likely to get practical knowledge by just watching them.
First off, watching movie or television simply fulfill people's desire of having fun. This comes from fundamental purposes of these media. People made them for outlet of their daily stressful lives. A variety of television programs, such as reality shows, which are designed to entertain people. The movies also tend to focus on enjoyment as most of their genres are basically comedy, musical, and thriller which people enjoy watching them. These provides people of issues that they can talk over with others in their lives; therefore, they also can have time socializing with people just by talking about what they see on television or movie. A few researches have proved the positive effect of media. According to them, people who spend appropriate amount of time watching television or movie are more likely to be mentally healthy: in other words, they are more likely to be satisfied with their lives rather than those do not watch television or movie at all. Critics may insist that being exposed on television or movie can harm people since they are dealing with harmful material, such as nudity. However, in my opinion, this is not the matter of media. Rather it is depends on people's self-control. Therefore, if they can control themselves by limiting hours of watching television or movie, these sources of media improve people's quality of life greatly.
Additionally, the public can aware of social issues by watching television or movie. These means of media inevitably deal with many issues and news that people encounter. For instance, when people wake up in the morning, they get to watch morning news and figure out how this world around them is going. They cover news about both local and international ones that may affect people's lives directly. However, regardless of being affected by news in their lives, they need to be aware of them for adjusting fast-changing world. Movie may less have a fuction of informing people, however, they do impact people's lives. For instance, I saw "Supersize me." which is about the harmful effect of Mcdonalds on people's health. After watching it, I realize that junk food, such as hamburgurs, cokes, and fried potatos, is detrimental for us. Since hygiene of food is one of the issues in this society, I got to aware of it on a deeper level. Consequently, people get more chances to learn and ponder about issues around this world by watching television and movies, and this leads them to prepare about future which they will face in any time.
In conclusion, television and movie play a pivotal role in human society by entertaining and informing people. However, watching them can affect badly if some people are not able to control themselves. Since they are the ones who decide what to see and how much time to see, they have to consider which one is beneficial for them or not. |
