Violence does not have a good effect on people
Violence is having a bad effect on people. The media is letting the violence go on daily. Everyday in the news there is always violence. The media is not making it better. You can see it on almost every channel. Some body getting killed, robbed, raped, and brutally beat. Television in general is giving people subliminal messages on the daily. It is giving people stereotypes to go by. It is giving people bad solutions to small problems. In lots of cases kids think that the only way to taken serious is using violence. Even in an older generation violence is a common use. The road that is being taken for our television, and the violence that it portrays, is wrong. In today’s youth violence is common to deal with on a regular basis. In many of the top watched shows is even violence or comedy. Nearly 75 percent of violent scenes on television feature no immediate punishment for or condemnation of violence. 61 percent of television programs contain some violence, and only 4 percent of television programs with violent content feature an "antiviolence" theme. If the anti-violence theme becomes more in television, it might end up having a good effect on some of the youth. If the shows become a little less violent or if some violent people have consequences, then it could have a better chance of the upcoming violence in the media. Some statistics show that the way that shows are going, the violence will go up dramatically. Only 16 percent of violent programs feature the long-term, realistic consequences of violence. Researchers have found that children are more physically and verbally aggressive immediately after watching violent television and movies. Since it is having such a bad effect on kids more than adults, it is more important to save the children rather than taking more time on the adults that may not be able to save. The television should have at lease more than 16% of the shows that have a better or real consequence of violence.
