i'm talking about entertainment, mass media, games, porn, internet, and sports. not just in america but around the world in general.
to the comparatively weak minded, immature, or inexperienced (basically most people as they're growing up) they seem to be irresponsibly affecting the world's youth.
i feel that it's easy to access them with technology's influence everywhere and then you can get sucked in, affected, or worse addicted. the industries then peddle anything, irregardless of what is good or bad for the audiences and individual viewers' psych.
this isn't a religious rant, even coming from a born and grown agnostic, i just feel from the bottom of my heart that these industries and businesses aren't being kept responsible enough for their actions (especially compared to the huge influence they have everywhere around the world..)

The media is merely a mirror to society, not a cause of its beliefs. TV stations etc. make money by showing people what they want to see.
So, yes. Evil. But effect, not cause.

In MY day, it was the PARENTS who influenced me most. yes, I saw all sorts of stuff, but in the end, what was important was how I behaved towards others and my parents made sure that we discussed whatever I saw on TV or in the movies or whatever so I could get their invaluable input. Has that job been given to Ted Turner or something?

Yes, most journalists are spawned from Satan himself.
