I was raised UPC...with a TV...so I never lived the no tv life.

Does advertising work...it does..on the tv, radio, billboards, convenience stores, magazines, internet, and all the other places ads are placed...

The bottom line is this...we choose what influences us...and we don't just sit there and have our noses 1 inch away from the TV ads and go...I gotta go get that beer or whatever....but there are plenty of people with their nose 1 inch away from the computer screen....

I keep hearing about internet.

Can't someone stay on the subject of TV.
Can't anyone defend TV on it's own merits?

the defense is the absurdity and hypocrisy of the doctrine against television....

Hey! The way in which you would defend internet would be exactly the same defense for TV. Think about it.

Your argument on internet would have some merit, but the Res 4 deals with TV
not internet.

Does only the things mentioned in resolutions have merit? What about the issues in the overall scope of things? Haha. There is more in this world than the resolutions of a UPC general conference.

Yes Bro, they do have merit, but for the scope of the debate it is about Res 4.

JMHO

anti-tv, pro-internet = hypocritical

explain how tv is worse than the internet and how it is impossible to police your tv viewing and I'll come up with a legit argument that we should be able to advertise/broadcast on tv... I might even come up with one for watching it...
