Some say the violence in our media makes us -and our
children -react to the world in a violent way.
If that's true', we're in trouble, There's been very
little research in Canada, and none about aa1 the media.
The Royal Commission on Violence in the Communi
cations Industry is tryinit to find an answer.
What does violence mean? Does it reflect the real
world? Or can it create`a different, more violent wprid .
in which we all have to live?'
What is the Commission Aoing? We're reviewing
the current research. Holding public hearings for
everyone. And well be recommending appropriate
action to all levels of government, to the industry and
to the public.
What canxou ? You can start by thinking about
the effect that violence in the media has -good or
bad -on your life. Your family. And that includes violence
in radio, TV, comic books, newspapers, popular music,
movies, books -even rock conherts.
Then, Le I us what you tUmk Send us your -ideas.
Come to the hearings, And when the time comes '
to make recommendations, there'll be things you can
do. In your own home, your own neighbourhood.
Witb your own children.
It's important for all of us to know Tore about media y
violence and how it affects us. We will, If you help.
The Royal Commission on Violence Is holding a "
hearing in:
