People never really sit back and realize how reality television affects people's behavior. Well it really corrupts our society or should i say makes our society even more corrupted then what it is. Reality television comes with drama, entertainment, and lies. One reality tv show is Love & Hip-Hop. This show displays many things that some young children shouldnt even be watching. Many issues are presented on this show. Fighting is one thing i mean yeah people fight but they fight because they dont know how to sit down like civilized adults and talk about what is going on so they think if they fight it will settle everything. This gives approval to think that it is appropriate to fight everytime you come across someone you dont like or have an issue with and its not. This reality show, shows that RESPECT can't even be earned even when the other person is giving their respect. It reveals to much violence they actually had a episode where the fight was so bad they had to go on commercial. The security couldn't even break it up in a good time matter. Incidents like this happen everyday in our society but this influences violence even more because the women and men on that show are role models to some young adults who watch the show. We are trying to stress that violence isnt the key but yet its bein broad casted to the world as if nothing can happen to you while being apart of violence.
Violence doesn' get you nowhere but two places and thats dead or in prison. What the cast have to realize is that they wouldn't want to see their child, neice, or nephew doing any of the things they are doing but in their mind they believe its ok because it's on television. Love & Hip-Hop cast is seperated in relationships and for the ones not in a relationship are in the music industry. Love & Hip-Hop also reveals that making a sex tape can turn out to be a good idea after all because of all the money you make. So people think recording themselves having sex and leaking them or sending them to friends thinking it's cool and that it is a chance if the biggest porn producer will get a hold of it and give you alot of money. Thats not a good way society should make money but the way they are showing us is like its ok. What reality televison shows have to realize is that all ages watch their shows so some things should be presented & many shouldn't be just to let people know that certain things shouldnt be seen. I say this because not every person who watches reality television gets corrupted but majority of society that does watch it are. Especially for young adults who actually are already living the lifestlye that they are showing on tv, it is not fair. You got people in relationships on this show who are throwing things at one another but if a child at home is already seeing this at their home between their parents it doesn't make their situation any better. That can corrupt a child because they see their parents doing it then famous people doing it , as they get older & get into a relationship they going do the exact same thing. Television in general affects people in the society i believe. It distracts people when they have to get things done, it make people stay up late, it also stop young adults from being a young adult. What i mean by that is television takes over some childrens lives, instead of them joining a club at school, doing hw, playing outside with friends or playing a sport they decide to watch tv ALL day. Its sad but its the truth and i dont think its going to be a change, especially if it isnt one yet. Just ask yourself this "Ten years from now, do you really think reality television is ever going to have an good affect on people's behavior?"
