Television, also called TV, is one of the most important mass media. People with a television set can sit at home and can see and learn about people, animals, and things in faraway lands. Millions of viewers around the world can watch sports events and other events of worldwide interest.
TV brings its viewers a steady stream of programs that are designed to give information and to entertain. In fact, television provides more entertainment programs that any other kind of mass media.

But TV also has a negative influence on society. TV cuts people from the real world. People become lazy, instead of doing sports they watch TV. Television takes free time of the people. Instead of reading books people watch various TV programs. The best thing is to watch only selective TV programs.
The grip it has on many people is great and they do not know how to spend their free time without television.
