Despite the development of the internet and cell phones, the television is still the most important when it comes to important sources of information.

There are a lot of advantages making television so popular. The main reason why so many people choose this means of getting information and entertainment is its simplicity and convenience. All you have to do is to press a button and sink comfortably into a chair. It doesn’t take all that much work to do and depending on what you watch, you are able to get a lot of information, and also get entertainment while doing so. One major problem with television is that people are becoming very dependent upon it. There are a lot less people going out and participating in sports because it takes up too much time and they don’t get to have their “TV time” which I personally think is ridiculous.

It’s far more interesting to listen to a football report full of energy than to “a peaceful story” a commentator hankers to tell you. Similarly,
