Hi there all,

I stopped watching TV,listening to the Radio and read the News papers many years ago, I found the programs and the information childish and culturally empty.

I know there might be some exeptions to this rule.

What kind of relationship do you have to these mass medium.

Peace and love.

Hi there!

I wish everybody could turn off the tv for good.

Did that for myself three years ago, and feel much better. Now i dont get hooked at some stupid tv show or soap series... I feel more alive!

But when i go out in my neighborhood and see all those people sit and staire at the tv, i get a weird feeling of being lonely.... But so be it.

Jeg vet ikke om dette er dokumentert, men jeg har hørt at mange hadde det bedre og var lettere til sinns i den perioden da journalistene streiket og det ikke var nyheter å oppdrive. Jeg synes det høres logisk ut.

I do also feel more alive without the noise and violence that one dont need to be exposed to.

Peace and love.

I've stopped using tv and popular radiochannels.
If I want music, i tune inn to a more intelligent webradio playin my music.
Now if I could only give up gaming...

Earlier I was a restless person zapping through the media world every night.Late.
But it wasnt much happiness in it. Or very sexy.
The real world is out here,and talking to new people every day is a bigger thrill and challenge than all tv-programmes.
I find a lot of things on TV very speculative.
Every time a child is missing,or a woman molested or ritualistic killed,massmedia pump it up as horrible.
But every night,if we turn on a tv-channel,there is the same horror,as entertainment.
I think it does something with our "filter" and I dont like it much.
I think its very funny to observe people who every day eat their dinner from a tray on their lap,while zapping through the channels.
Can all be digested?
