Talk Shows
Trashy talk shows effect Americans and society in negative ways, because many of the topics on these types of programs are degrading to our society. With trashy talk shows ruling daytime television, people are left with little choice, but to watch these humiliating forms of entertainment. Trash talk is what is hot these days. It has risen within the last decade of being a cultural phenomenon. Americans watch more TV today, than they have in the past ten years and talk shows are a major contribution to that. Turn the television on in the afternoon and you will find a large variety of talk shows to choose from. Have we as a nation, become addicted to hearing our neighbors' steamy personal problems? Personally, I feel it is both the lack of choice and the attraction to other people’s problems, that draws us into these types of trashy shows. So, when it comes to choosing a side in the argument of Bennett or Gaines, I'd have to side with William Bennett. In his essay, Bennett explains why he thinks daytime talk shows are having a bad influence on the American public and why we should do our best to try and change that. If a person came to America for the first time and watched television, they would probably see a talk show.
