There is no doubt that television is one of the most powerful communication tools in the world. Its contemporary appeal makes it difficult to ignore. In fact, recent studies suggests that people depend on TV for entertainment, news, education, culture, weather, sports, and even music. But despite the possible benefits that it presents, TV consumption is heavily criticized in a negative way. Contrary to the thousands of people across the world who assume that watching television wastes time, the Broadcasting Commission of Jamaica (BCJ) supports objectivity in all spheres of our electronic communications industry and with free-to-air and cable TV, it is no different.

A 2011 Statistical Institute of Jamaica (STATIN) census survey confirms that over 87 percent of homes have one or more television sets. One of our goals at BCJ is to ensure that Jamaicans have access to content from diverse sources, on a variety of platforms and with more options of viewing TV available, we now have access to a plethora of content. These days, watching TV is an inevitable habit – especially for young children and teens. Recent studies into the dynamics of the viewing process of young children and teens say that rather than being passive screen gazers, they are active explorers of television content (Valkenburg, 2004; Livingston, 2002). But what does this mean? Our youth are developing more of the critical thinking skills they need to be active, engaged viewers.
