Why do you think television was invented and then given to the masses?

It changed the lifestyle of families drastically. What would it be like without it?

The artifact itself it's a powerful tool. Imagine that people are inside a shelter and their only window to the world is the T.V, that is what it is, at least for children, for us people. It's the way people see the life, thanks to whoever did it we now have internet, but the line between real and a scam is too thin. Thanks to the people that gives us tv programs, tv is now an idiotizing box. People have the need for information, tv is the way to give them that, the problem is in the people who choose what information to give.

void00	Posted Aug 17th, 2009 at 12:08PM TV was accidentally invented by a scientist trying to produce a death ray. It wasn't given to the masses, they rose up and demanded it. Of course if we didn't have TV we would have a lot of free time. Rated: +2Vote for this!
