Television As A Reflection Of Society 5 pages in length. As much as people might try to use television as a scapegoat for all of society's ills, it is truly nothing more than an accurate cultural refection rather than that of an influence upon it. Indeed, television only mirrors what already exists in reality, as opposed to being an operative component behind the motivating factors. However, this reflection is not only limited to television but is also prominently portrayed in advertisements, music and all other form of media, inasmuch as it mirrors what society has effectively become. While there is a significant amount of violence characteristic of social interaction, this image is not distorted by what the media represents as reality. The writer discusses how television is not responsible for violent behavior, but is merely a depiction of social existence. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
