The effect of television on violence
The effect of the media on violence has become very apparent. It has been for some time now. Although studies were not conducted when television programs first aired, I think that if they were the results would have been very similar. More violent shows have a very negative effect on children. In this essay I will show the tie that violence in the real world has with violence in the media. Also I will attempt to convince you that violence plays a big part in how aggressive and violent a child grows up to be.
