We all own it. You can not deny it. Most people have several in their homes, heck I'd say a majority of homes in the United States have a Television in every single room of the house!
Television is a very entertaining medium. They have a wide variety of shows. Educational channels such as Animal Planet, National Geographic, History Channel, etc. The television has a channel or show just for about every person in the world! They cover every single subject possible!
Though T.V. is very educational, it is the downfall of our future generations. Teenagers are very easily influenced. There are shows on television, mostly Reality Shows, that exhibit poor behavior in people. By teenagers watching this, they will want to be just as cool as the person on T.V. and act like them. This causes fads, and fads catch on, thus influencing a large population of the teenagers.
