Can Television Cause Teenagers to be Violent? • Studies in the 1950’s have shown that violence in media can trigger an unstable person to commit violence http://www.themoorings.org/life/separation/television/psych1.html • Teenagers may think acting violent is okay • Jamie Bulger Case • Parenting?

  5. Opinions made on Television • “Occasionally you will see examples of bad behavior on TV, on the news, in drama or wherever. But we all see it and we don't all react the same way.My view is that it is the people who misuse TV who are a bad influence not TV itself” • “I think the problem is that few people know anywhere near enough about "reality" but know far too much about escapist genres” http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/mbpointsofview/F1951566?thread=7166069&skip=20&show=20

  6. Sociological Theories • Hypothermic Syringe Model • Media can directly “inject” messages into the audience • Relates to the impulsive side of people • Fails to recognize the social characteristics of the audience • Cultural Effects Model • People can interpret the media in their own unique ways • Beliefs are slowly built up • Contradicts the Hypothermic Syringe Model • Uses and Gratifications Model • Focuses on the audience’s motive to watch television • Everyone has their own unique motive • Model suited for all types of people
