Summary/Abstract: Television has become a scapegoat for all sorts of societal and cultural ills. Critics blame television for everything from obesity to the murder rate. While television is easy to criticize, and much of the criticism is justified, we also need to keep in mind that television benefits society in many important ways. This paper aims to find the answer to a few issues: What is the real nature of television, and what is its place into the contemporary society and culture? What is the impact of television on people and how can the effects of television be disentangled from all others?
