Today in class we talked about how reality TV shows have influenced real life. How government has influence with TV Dramas and reality shows as well as dating shows. Shows like, Elimidate, the Real World, 5th Wheel, Survivor, and other shows. Most of the time government plays a part in the shows. Telling what and what not they can say on TV. What has to be censored and can be said. But over the years the FCC has more curse words to be said on TV as the years went on. Recently I heard that the FCC wants to try to decrease the rate of violence on TV. The FCC thinks that it screws the minds of children and teaches them bad things, but they a lot of sex on cable. TV has a lot of influence on people but I think that if kids are going to pick up bad words, they would still pick them up when their older, so it doesn’t matter where they get it from. If kids hang out with their friends, they can pick up violence or a bad word from them. What if a friend lets steal this candy bar. Then your kid will do it, and keep on doing it as he gets older and it might turn into more valuable things being stolen. So, TV has lots to do with how we people think everyday of our lives, because we watch so much of it. Its that you can learn anything from anybody.

The FCC has always wanted to limit the amount of sex and violence on television. At one point, they didn't want women to be able to show their collarbones, because that was too revealling. Can you imagine?
Be careful of your language here; make sure you're using complete sentences.
