.... and violence shown regularly on household televisions has intrigues us as Americans and numbed our sense of what's right and what's wrong in society. What shocked us at first has now become customary dinner-time cinema. With the increase in the number of television sets in America, more and more young people have been robbed of their creativity. With TV, hardly anything is left to the imagination. Before the existence of television, all people wre forced to create their own opinions and images of things in their own minds. But with TV, all the images are created for you and almost all the arguments are one-sided. With TV, you no longer create your own ideas .....

.... is and the disguises he assumes to conceal the fact. Secondly, I think that in the play honours are thought of as garments to be worn; likewise, Macbeth is constantly represented symbolically as the wearer of robes not belonging to him. He is wearing an "undeserved dignity." A crucial point in describing the purpose of clothing in `Macbeth' is the fact that these are not his garments. Therefore, Macbeth is uncomfortable in them because he is continually conscious of the fact that they do not belong to him. In the following passage, the idea constantly recurs that Macbeth's new honours sit ill upon him, like a loose and badly fitting garment, belonging to someo .....

.... a rich young price of high moral estate suddenly has his joyous life ripped away from him when his father, Hamlet Sr., suddenly passes away. Though originally thought to be of natural causes, it is later revealed to him through his father's ghost, that dear old dad was murdered by his Step-Father, and also his Uncle, Claudius. Vowing revenge upon his Uncle/Dad, Hamlet begins to mentally falter and eventually, is in such a wild rage that he accidentally kills Polonious believing him to be his father. Hilarity ensues. Ophelia, Hamlet's love interest, commits suicide/dies (that's up for debate elsewhere) after going slightly mad from the impact of her father .....

.... was most popular during the 1950’s. It takes place in a small New York City apartment in which the two main characters, Ricky and Lucy Ricardo, live. What is interesting about the show is the fact that all of the gender roles are extremely well defined and strictly enforced. The fact that women played such traditional roles in the show might anger some viewers of today. However, if analyzed a bit closer, the show can be seen as a prelude to the women’s movement that would follow decades later. If the show were just about how life was in the 50’s, it would not be as popular as it is today. Imagine Lucy Ricardo, being the typical housewife of that time, .....

.... past twenty years shape and mold today's society. Some people television and cable is the source of today's laziness in children. They believe it teaches the viewer to live in a fantasy-land, where violence is permitted and bathroom humor is considered comedy. They say it will turn a mind into mush. I disagree with these thoughts. Television and cable are not just comedy shows, they offer educational background as well. Through this technological breakthrough, I can receive up to the minute coverage of breaking events around the world instead of reading about it a day late in the paper. Television offers a picture to go with the words unlike the radio .....

.... she was the one who also had something going on. She had no right to be so disrespectful to my father by not even mourning him correctly. As I said before my dad was very protective of my mother and she had no right to go and do this to him. Eventhough he has passed on, it doesn’t make it right that she showed so much disrespect for him. He didnt deserve that. With my friends, I appreciate them telling me about their apparition of the ghost, because by them telling me this, it showed that they were looking out for me. As a result of them telling me, I found out the ghost was my father. He told me a lot of information about what happened to him before .....

.... is tainted to accommodate the newspapers need to sell papers. Journalism is the work of gathering news, therefore making the journalist succumb to the corporate needs of the newspaper. The three major newspapers of Toronto (Toronto Sun, Toronto Star and The Globe & Mail) discord in their journalistic techniques for the purpose of selling their produc t. "News is more often made rather than gathered. And it is made on the basis of what the journalist thinks is important or what the journalist thinks the audience thinks is important" (Postman, 14). The Toronto Sun focuses on the audience that yearns for entertainment and adjuts its word selection a .....

.... was helpful to make the dialogue as realistic as possible. Throughout the movie the family's clothing, possessions and even the car added to the effect that Steinbeck had created when he wrote his novel long ago. As the movie progresses, there is actually two stories, one of the individual journey of the Joad family, and one for telling the general plight of the migrants. The director shows the individual family to show that the migrants are really people and to bring their plight home to the audience. The general story is told to show how it is affecting large numbers of people. Throughout the movie, we watch the Joads progress from a concern only for t .....
