Reduce violence on television

Since the advent of television, the effect of TV 

violence on society has been widely studied and 

vigorously debated. Based on the cumulative 

evidence of studies conducted over several decades, 

the scientifi c and public health communities 

overwhelmingly conclude that viewing violence poses 

a harmful risk to children. Critics of the research 

challenge this conclusion and dispute claims that 

exposure to TV violence leads to real-life aggression. 

As we move into the digital era with enhanced images 

and sound, media violence will undoubtedly continue 

to be a focus of public concern and scientific research.
