Television reinforces the trend towards living in an artificial environment cut off from direct knowledge of the world and makes you susceptible to the implantation of arbitrary realities. It's technologically and economically suited to domination by corporate giants, produces neurophysiological effects which are unhealthy (and which also condition people to accept autocratic control), and is inherently more able to convey (mis)information than many of the vast array of media in our world.
The writing on the wall.
