Many people believe that increasing levels of violence on television and in films is having a direct result on levels of violence in society. Others claim that violence in society is the result of more fundamental social problems such as unemployment. How much do you think society is affected by violence in the media?

With the increasing level of
violence
in
society
, whether or not
television
and films are having a negative impact on
society
has become a widely debated topic. While many believe that apart for programs with
violence
,
television
programs have a huge variety of channels, other maintain that linking
violence
on
television
with crime rates in the real world is not directly
relationship
Suggestion
related
. Given that
television
programs can be informative and educational and
violence
in
society
may not be directly related to the fundamental
society
Suggestion
society's
problems, I strongly disagree that
violence
on
television
and in films is having a direct
result
on
Suggestion
in
levels of
violence
in
society
.
To begin
with,
television
programs have different types. Apart from programs with
violence
,
television
also
have other programs
such
as documentary, educational programme,
television
drama. Arguably, not everyone wants to watch
television
programs or films with violent scenes.
Furthermore
, there are only
few parts
Suggestion
a few parts
in the programmes contain violent scenarios.
On the other hand
, programs can
also
be informative and educational.
For instance
, Discovery Channel, TED talk and BBC Learning English. To a certain extent that programs can fulfil an educational purpose.
Violence
on
television
programs or in firms are only involved as a part of the whole
videos
Suggestion
video
.
Therefore
,
that is
not directly reason that leads to the levels of
violence
in
society
.
Secondly
, it is no reason to show that
violence
in
society
is the
result
of more fundamental social problems. The fundamental social problems can be widely debated issues.
For instance
, unemployment, infrastructures and health care issues. That
involve
Suggestion
involves
different types of people in
society
. That problem with
violence
on
television
programs or in firms
are not directly linking
Suggestion
are not directly linked
to the level of
violence
in
society
. Take unemployment as an example. It is not because of the increasing level of
violence
on
television
programs or in firms gives rise to
unemployment rate
Suggestion
the unemployment rate
.
Conversely
, the fundamental social problems rely on
government’s policy
Suggestion
the government’s policy
.
In addition
, many people believe that the increasing levels of
violence
on
television
and in films is having a direct
result
on
Suggestion
in
levels of
violence
in
society
.
Although
some people said that the children can imitate the behaviours they see on the
television
programs. The truth is that the
violence
on
television
programs or in films is supervised. As we all know the films are classified into different categories in order to protect young people from exposure to material which might be harmful to them. And
also
, Parents and teachers teach children that
violence
is wrong.
Therefore
, we should not be over-worried that the
violence
programs twill
effects
the conscious subjective aspect of feeling or emotion
affects
children’s psychological development. Having discussed that
television
programs have various types and
violence
in
society
is not the
result
of more fundamental social problems, I firmly believe that
violence
on
television
and in films is not having a direct
result
on
Suggestion
in
levels of
violence
in
society
.
