viewing aspects of life that we don’t typically consider often, from articles that shine a light on the horrors of “Tent City”, to writings of the reality of working as a paramedic. However, the article that presented the strongest argument is “Television" by Todd Alcott. His approach to the conflict presented in his writings managed to submerge the reader into his argument, that makes the rhetoric of his statement that much more effective.

In Germany, television displays almost no censorship and nationally broadcasts frontal and back nudity without hesitation. Westernized thoughts and idealism of what is proper and acceptable behavior on broadcasted entertainment tends to be…
interesting that with the rising use of technology, those who use technology in excess tend to also be outcast by others. Rarely is there a connection made between both drugs and television. In Pete Hamill’s “Crack and the Box”, he draws many similarities between those who use drugs and children who have had the influence of television their entire life.
