Television

I don't really care much for television. It doesn't serve any purpose for me except to provide news through the media, and I could use the internet in order to get that if I wanted it. It just seems pointless to me. Sure, it does provide plenty of entertainment, but I've got enough entertainment in my life that I don't need to spend my time watching TV. That's just my personal opinion on the subject; I don't really want someone else to stop watching TV just because I told him or her that it served no purpose. I do believe, however, that television has been abused by the masses to the point where our priorities are no longer set right. As stated, if the masses care more about who won an Emmy than who won a Nobel Prize, then there might be a problem. But, this abuse is just due to human nature, so I can't say that I'm surprised at the whole situation that there is right now.
