What does entertainment

mean to

you?

What do you do for entertainment?

Watch TV?

Surf the internet?

Sit quietly and read a book?

Some people look for celebrity gossip. Why?

Are our own lives so boring that we need to check out the rich and famous and see their flaws?

Why do we not spend our time working on we want for ourselves? Most entertainment news comes to us via the media and this system is extremely well organised to get our attention with curious titles and sometimes using words which grey some of the details to get our interest.

TV is one of the most popular entertainment forums but are we really being entertained or set up for advertisers?

You know what I mean how many programs have you watched and just when the program gets interesting and the commercial break starts?

But what are the options?

If the advertising was stopped where would the money come from for the TV company?

Or to put it another way how many people pay to watch TV?

But wait I hear you say Sky TV is a subscription service. So it is and how many times have you noticed they keep you up to date with all the other programs which are on their network? Or are you immune to their helpfulness?

Why not just check the program guide out?

So is TV a distorted definition of entertainment ?
