Access to satellite and Internet television does more harm than good.

Many people have strong feelings about the value of television, especially now that programmes are available through satellite and over the Internet. There are those who suggest that increased access to these programmes does more harm than good. However, there are those who insist that it is a good thing.

There are three problems with wide access to television programmes. Firstly, there are people (especially children) have access to programmes with unsuitable content.Violent horror and action movies can influence on immature. Secondly, more access to television encourages adult and children to watch more television, so there is less time for hobbies or family. Also, there is wasting time instead of educating yourself. For example, teenagers prefer sitting in front of television than reading or going to the theater. Finally, the programmes available may not culturally appropriate.

On the other hand, there are a lot of advantages to watching television. In the first place, a huge choice of programmes is available - something for every interest, for example sport, music, film, documentary channels. In addition, television programmes in other languages , for example English, can support language. For instance, movies with subtitles help me to improve reading and listening. Finally, it can be the only entertainment for disabled people. For example, people which not able to move can gain an opportunity to introduce with world.

In conclusion, I believe that, despite the disadvantages, access to television is essential to our life. The advantages of watching television are far greater than disadvantages. More over, we can not imagine our life without television.
