Television- Good or Bad?

When it comes to television, I believe that although it is sometimes vulgar, it is something great to have.  I don't think that every t.v. in America should be unplugged.  There are very interesting shows that can teach you a lot like the discovery channel, TLC, and all of the news channels.  Many people watch the news all of the time.  It is one of the easiest ways to access the worldy news.  So why would we get rid of t.v.? After all, shouldn't we be informed of what is happening in the world that we live in today? TLC is also an interesting television channel.  I have watched to many shows on there that I have learned something from.  For example, I watched The Tallest Man In The World episode and learned so much about him.  The man had such hardship throughout his life because of his height.   He has been teased his entire life because of his height and has had many medical problems because of the disease he has.  One part of his body just keeps letting hsi body grow.  Other episodes that I have learned from are Mermaid Girl, Tree Man, Untold Stories of the E.R., and Waking Up in the Morgue.  Not every television show is about sex, guitos, juiceheads, drugs, alcohol, etc.  You ocan actually learn stuff from your television.  Not only is it used to help you learn more, but also to inform you of things.  The news informs you of things going on in the world and how they are affecting you.  The Weather Channel informs you of the weather for the week and which way the rain is coming.  We can learn by watching television... so why would we unplug all of them?
