I wouldn't care if I never saw a football game. Sports isn't what it used to be. Now it's all money, money, money. TV has corrupted this country, unfortunately, in so many ways.

I wholeheartedly agree. It has turned us into brainless, indifferent, undiscrimating fat slugs, so hypnotized that our president getting knee-pad service under his desk while ordering up a designer war to get our kids killed in didn't result in the instant death of the the democratic party that instigated it, and the republican party that tolerated it. The Roman circus was a socially hygenic dream compared to this.

Too bad. It could be used as a force for good.

I doubt it. See Jerry Manders "Four arguments for the Elimination of Television"

I read once where they spoke about the way the world was before color tv, the black and white days. It was funny but very eye opening as well. It's come a long way, baby. Unfortunately, the direction is down, not up.
