Sodom revealed:
I don't question that they follow behavior on TV or that they watch too
much and do too little - about that you get no argument from me. I
simply don't think that we are "saturated" with the negative images. I
don't think most the images are negative - nor disturbing, or bad. Just
to be sure I felt good about that statement, I went directly my
satellite tv and ran through the channels - and sure enough, almost no
violent shows at all, those that were were mostly movies. Lots of
baseball and meaningless drivel, but little violence. This was at 4:00,
I looked again at 8:00 and it was mostly the same, a few more drama
shows, but that's about it. I simply don't think the problem is in the
content - but the dependence.

I concur. It seems as if the attention the press gives to what is
violent casts a shadow upon everything else. ..............jim
