How would you feel if your children were watching an unregulated tv show? Growing up, my parents did a great job of regulating what I watched on TV. Although, most families probably did not understand what to let their kids watch and not watch on a daily basis. TV started out only play between 6 to 10 stations, mainly for the news stations. TV was designated to appeal to the mass market, hoping to allow everyone to enjoy the television. Although, Cable TV has much fewer band witch restrictions because their is no rationale for regulating it. I believe it is up to the parents to regulate what their child watches, especially since their is no rationale for regulating it before being viewed. Moving forward, it is fundamental human interest that drives us to watch shows on TV. On a weekly basis, I watch “how to get away with murder”, and honestly I am highly interested in watching the show but I do not understand why they allow this show to be viewed. It has an affect on public self because it shows inappropriate scenes that should be regulated. Public self has to accept it, yet private self would find questionable. Although, why are shows such as “how to get away with murder” so popular? It has a fundamentally human interest to watch shows on TV that have an inappropriate aspect to it.
