TO THE EDITOR
Ban video hits
•
To the Editor:
Wink we are all too passive about the kind,
of TV programming that is projected into our
living moms. In particular this year I am
outraged everytime I turn the TV on to the
local station at 4 p.m. week days and the show
VIDEO HITS comes spewing forth. 1 have
found that it is regularly vulgar and offensive.
Not only is it full of /violence and gross
sexuality but it, portrays these things in such a
manner as to make it seem funny and
acceptable. Fbr example, today when I turned
Won in the middle of the show there were
shots of large trucks smashing into cars with
people in them, interspersed with shots of a
fellow laughing. Then there were sequences
of people being shot by guns and explosives
again alternated with shots of someone
laughing. All of thi&. was accompanied by
upbeat popular music making the whole thing
seem goad and desirable.
In this day and age when we are
recognizing the impact of the media on the
socialization and moral values developed by
our young people I think it is very important
that programing decisions made by TV
Stations be sensitive to the impact of the
content of their programs on the local
community.
- I hope any of your readers who share my
concern will write to the TV station as I have
done and express their dissatisfaction.
Video Hits has no place on television at a
time of day when many young ' children are
just home from School looking for something
to Watch on TV. Our young people need all
the positive examples that we can find for
them.
am aware of the competition the television
industry must be feeling from the video
popularity but I don't think that's any
justification for showing trashy videos on TV.
Sincerely,
Fran McQuail.
