Now, I
don’t mean to be a deterrent for either books or television. I think both offer
a good opportunity to expand a person’s horizons and make them think more. But
from what I’ve heard there are a lot of misconceptions about the two mediums
and people really don’t think about what they’re really saying about either one.
That’s the big point for this whole paper. I don’t want to convince you of an
argument, on the contrary.
I want you to think about this for yourself,
to form your own opinion on the matter. All I want to show you is the potential
in both to really say something to the masses. Both are legitimate ways to
reach out to a large audience, but they’re tools. They can be used in a good or
bad way depending on how you use them.
You could argue that everyone must make the decision for himself on whether or not television is more beneficial than books.
