Absolute corruption of morals, values, beliefs, etc...  The forced feeding of liberal ideas to very influenceable young minds.  "It's OK to be a fag", "Christians are idiots", "All white men are evil".  F--- the media.

Check out foxnews.com. They did an extensive investigative report on post war Iraq a while back.  Based upon what they found the country is thriving.\n\nAs for the media they look for stories that have two factors.  First the story must have an excitement factor in order to get an audience.  Second it must fall within limits of what is acceptable to the liberals who own the media outlets.  Except for FOX and some local independent papers and news stations most media follows these two unwritten but mutually understood rules.

Most are not.  They must usually be either affluent, young and attractive, or represent a specific group the media wants to support or bring down to get on the news.

Most haven't a clue about the media, its history or how it works. They just parrot whatever comes in the talking points supplied by those they allow to manipulate them.

Talk about how it has always been around but the incidence -especially among teens has skyrocketed over the past 15-20 years. When you start a paper you always want to make a case for why it's important and why you chose the subject.

This letter should be fairly short because newspapers don't have room to publish long pieces.  First outline the issue.  Compared to kids in more urban areas, there is very little in the way of entertainment.  No concerts, movies, plays, etc.  This is fairly clear-cut and shouldn't take too long.  Then you should add in possible consequences.  Why is this issue important, why should we care?  Lack of culture, greater youth delinquency, and so on.  Here's a sample letter (though on a different subject) along with a few extra tips: http://www.uusc.org/programs/STOP/lettertoeditor.html .  Good luck!

yes, the media does teach gender behavior the media is one of the most powerful tools out there it warps and manipulate people by the masses. especially the young they set a standard for people to follow and they glorify it as its the best thing. best defense agaist this to be aware of what you watch.

I would worry that banning books and information affects the young.  Students don't want to read or develop opinions and thought.  They want to play video games and listen to music.  Marketing and advertisers influence teenagers to think about materials and ideas that will make them richer not enrich the kids or the world. It creates discourse that is frivolous and shallow, attitudes that are indifferent and lazy.  Some things being banned make people want to read or learn more, but teenagers would run and buy a CD that was controversial, but a book, they probably wouldn’t even know about the controversy because they are not reading newspapers or news online or anything but MTV news. People will become less active minded and less critical and before you know it, the world will change into a new world, but only a better world for the people who dictate the thoughts of the masses.

Yes, I think the media  had pretty much a negative effect on all aspects. When was the last time you read the paper or watched the news and saw something positive?

To young people - sports means money\nHow does it affect sports? It really doesnt, in my opinion. just ads a little bit of motivation
