IT IS TRANSMITTED BY ethereal-drop way...

The viewer is the person who watches TV around the clock. And those who, like me, in fits and starts, are temporary consumers. I only watch the news to know what's going on in the world, and sports programs to relax the soul.

In general, it should be noted that all of our television is terribly politicized. In the news, you can only hear where Putin went this time, who was caught and who was released. In Soviet times, there was another extreme - new blast furnaces were opened and we were ahead of the rest. Now it's the exact opposite: everyone just criticizes. But there are still people who do something, invent something. There is no need to divide life into negative and positive, television needs objectivity.

I just got back from Chile. Of course, there are also enough politicians there - all sorts of Pinochets and the like, but in the news they constantly talk about some achievements of science and industry. You can see that life goes on. And our life goes only within the Boulevard Ring, further behind it - they only kill and steal.

Television as a technical invention is not evil, the question is how to use it. As long as there is no clear ideology of the state, we will observe complete confusion. If the state had, say, a Muslim ideology, there would be some specific television programs, while the Catholic one would be completely different. And even some "national censorship committee" will not help us. If you put Svanidze as the censor of the first channel, and Dorenko as the censor of the second channel, then simply the first channel will become the second, and the second - the first, but in essence nothing will change.

In general, there is no general moral principle by which the criteria for inadmissibility are determined. This is a problem not only for television, but for society as a whole. Television is only a product, the result of the current state of society. Like hazing in the army: when I served, it was not there, not because we were better, it was just that the time was completely different.

Movies on TV are no better than news. It is enough to watch one “cool action movie” a week to roughly imagine what the rest are about: the main character is a playboy, the final scene of a fight with pipe fragments in a non-functioning factory, after which not even scratches remain on the main character, a lush blonde and a happy ending.

Sports programs that I watch often and with pleasure have been pushed back for a very inconvenient time, but judging by the amount of advertising, they have a good rating. I believe that advertising is, of course, evil, but a necessary evil. Almost like taxes: no one likes to pay, but it is necessary for the state.

An epidemic of violence is in the air right now. The third world war has been going on for a long time, but it’s just not yet global, but focal: the massacre in the Balkans, the war of tribes in Africa, the Kurds are separated from the Turks, the Basques from the Spaniards, an American schoolboy shoots classmates, racial squabbles in France, we have Chechnya. ..

This epidemic leaves its mark everywhere: in newspapers, films, on television. And in order not to become a victim of this epidemic, you just need to observe personal hygiene: wash your hands, do not communicate with bacillus carriers, do not visit places of their mass congestion such as meetings and rallies, do not shake hands with anyone, do not look at anything - this thing is broadcast on the air. drip way. Today it is the only way to save yourself. True, there is no guarantee that you will not be hit at the entrance with a piece of pipe.
