If you're going to say TV is a brainwashing device then you have to say Newspapers, magazines, literature, the internet and music are too. The only thing wrong with TV is the quality of 90% of the output and commercials.

Parents who harp on about the influence Television violence, sex and blah blah has oh their children need to get their fingers out of their arses and be more proactive in their development. They forget it can also be insightful and educational... although unless you're watching the discovery channel or its affiliates that's rare these days.
