Why are you getting insulting? I didn’t say anything even slightly rude to you or deprecating to your position. I simply pointed out why people are more able to identify with TV characters they see than real people they don’t. Really there’s no reason to start throwing around n00bie crap.
I don’t think the TV venue could change any of that. You still have the basic that abortion kids are “faceless” to the masses and won’t generate empathy. They are real human being but they don’t FEEL real to most people, and ni this case it’s the feeling that matter.
BTW, do you really believe that the little box, the goblin fire in people's living rooms and bedrooms does not fashion public perception and public opinion? ... Right, you'll get lots of agreement with that one!
