media violence

I suppose watching movies and television and the violence in them has its effects. Some of the effects it has on people are desensitizing people. Making people not aware that something critical is happening in front of them. Like a fight happening in front of two kids. Besides desensitizing people violence in the media gives lots of ideas to impressionable people. Making those people that do not have a mind of their own and to do what ever everyone is doing to do violent acts. Mostly there is violence for entertainment and ratings.
