Saving 'Free' Broadcast Television
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page report proposing some fixes for the 'fix' network television finds itself now facing. For years, broadcast TV has paid little attention to the desires of the viewers, even as they leave in droves for cable channels and satellite TV. Now there is talk of the major sports organizations' governing bodies to abandon network TV in favor of a pay-per-view approach to raking in the money. The ultimate effect of such a move, however, would be to limit fan accessibility to the organized games. Baseball attendance still has not regained the ground lost during the baseball strike, and further exhibits of lack of loyalty to the fans could do irreparable damage to the fortunes of big-business sports, a fact that network executives need to point out to the powers that be. FREE appendix included ! Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Television and the Decline of the Family Unit
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper that discusses how the common use of the television has, for the most part, pulled many families further apart. Television has become a very regular part of our society and more importantly, of our family life.

Television As A Reflection Of Society
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. As much as people might try to use television as a scapegoat for all of society's ills, it is truly nothing more than an accurate cultural refection rather than that of an influence upon it. Indeed, television only mirrors what already exists in reality, as opposed to being an operative component behind the motivating factors. However, this reflection is not only limited to television but is also prominently portrayed in advertisements, music and all other form of media, inasmuch as it mirrors what society has effectively become. While there is a significant amount of violence characteristic of social interaction, this image is not distorted by what the media represents as reality. The writer discusses how television is not responsible for violent behavior, but is merely a depiction of social existence. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Television As Sexist
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Sexism in television is an industry ill that has run rampant ever since its mid-century inception. Even though it has purportedly quelled its ever-present sexist orientation, critics charge that this is hardly the case. Even in programs that proclaim to utilize women as respected and equal characters to their male counterparts, what has truly surfaced is nothing more than a clever ploy to make it appear as though television has finally put to bed the sexists perception it adopted at inception. The writer discusses how this veiled attempted to promote women from beneath the social oppression of the male ego has its roots in patriarchal control, in spite of the fact that women are more independent now than they have ever been before throughout history. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
