The word ‘television’ comes from the Greek ‘tele’ meaning ‘from afar’. Just like how telephone, and telegraph mean sounds, and writing, or messages, from afar, television means pictures from afar.
As with many great inventions, from airplanes to motor-cars, telephones, the fountain pen and the typewriter, television cannot be wholly attributed to one man.Experiments in transmitting images over a distance have dated back as far as the late 1800s, however, television as we would recognise it today, that is, moving images transmitted to a screen, did not emerge until the mid-1920s. The man responsible for its creation was Mr. John Logie Baird, a Scotsman (1888-1946). Mr. Baird was experimenting with transmitting images over the air for a long time, starting in the early 1920s. However, it was not until the early 1930s that the first TV sets that we might know today, ever appeared in shop windows.It will not be wrong to say that the television was one of the biggest inventions of the twentieth century and has actually brought a big revolution in mass communication, but if you look at the other side of the coin then it is very daunting. Television or its modern version of plasma or LCD screens can make you sit in front of it consecutively for hours that we are better off calling it an idiot’s box rather than an idiot box.
Adverse Effect of prolonged watching of television.
1)Watching television for a limited time with family is not bad, but too much of it can affect our critical thinking to a detrimental level and change our personality.
2)Excess TV viewing also has a profound impact on our relationships.
3)Noise pollution created by television leads to all this.
4)Spending time with TV also means that you have less time for interacting with your friends and family members. How would you feel if your partner finds watching TV a better option than talking to you ? You will certainly feel bad and as it turns out,watching too much TV has now become one of reasons of divorce cases.
5)Further with 3D television, the depth perception in children is greatly affected. It has been recommended that children under three should not watch television at all.
6)If elder children are exposed to TV for more than two hours then their health will deteriorate.
7)Your kid may also start showing aggressive behavior and his or her performance at school will deteriorate. In a study conducted by Herbert Krugman in 1969, it has been found out that left hemisphere of our brain is responsible for processing information logically and analytically, but by watching television it goes out of tune
Do not waste time by sitting in front of the TV as time once lost cannot be got back and you will then either blame yourself or your idiot box.
I hope this helps you
