Talk shows - Gossip and Slander
Sports - Winners vs. Losers
Commercials - Lack, Need, and Imperfection
The Solution - No TV
I have seen children raised without TV and with and the difference is remarkable (sure there are other factors but there was something a little disturbing about hearing a four year old wanting a particular brand of shoe).
I got rid of my TV years ago - just watch DVDs and use the internet - I don't miss it in the least.
I'll watch some History or Discovery channel on mine, other than that I keep the big piece of societal conditioning turned off. I stick with computer games, books, and internet for entertainment/news.
