Grace Posts: 519 Incept: 2008-10-15 upstate new york	It seems to me that TV became more violent after 9/11 with all the SWAT team shows, etc and now the programming has become WEIRD with all the zombie, GRIMM and vampire crap. Not very uplifting so I a don't watch much and commercials...as said above...is the opportunity to change the channel. Last modified: 2012-04-04 07:39:22 by grace 2012-04-04 07:38:51 Permalink

Ramthebulls Posts: 10844 Incept: 2007-09-24 Queens, NY Online	The proportion of TV commercials on Bloomberg TV involving violence remains at ~0% compared with ~0% previously. (and I only know this because it is on in the office I am currently working from.) Not sure why one would willingly subject themselves to commercials (or TV in general). ---------- Umbrage is like love.

Ponzi_unit Posts: 8098 Incept: 2007-09-05 Online	I think it was me. I realized I watched some shows on SPIKE TV for a couple days. It's mostly back ground noise and keeps the critters away. Maybe it gets people thinking about how we're being approached by people needing our money so hope it's a good waste of time. Going to leave the poll set as it is to read the comments it drums up. ---------- Taxpayers witnessed a crime and stayed around long enough to get charged with it. 2012-04-04 18:48:25 Permalink
Guydaley Posts: 15320 Incept: 2007-07-10 Wyoming only ATM Banned	Sorry, I use my TV to watch DVDs only. What occurs on TV I have to find out from other people. Poll should have had an option for "I don't watch TV and/or commercials". A very glaring error in design. ---------- Its called creeping TEOTWAWKI. Just because it doesn't happen all at once doesn't mean it isn't happening. 2012-04-09 09:31:45 Permalink
