Rochelle M’s “Reality TV Has Life Lesson” by SamReedIII Lyrics

Genre: misc | Year: 2015

"There are life lessons that can be derived from reality television." (Mike White)

I feel that Reality Tv is positive even though others may not agree with me. Reality Tv can be positive and negative. Reality tv can have some negative things about it because of the bad morals that some of the TV shows promote. Reality can be positive because it can help promote "positive awareness about healthy living, nutrition, and body image" and Reality " TV can also showcase novice talent and illustrate the power of “self”, and “fighting for what you believe.”(Borg)

Reality TV can uphold bad morals for instance in the "recent years Reality TV shows have increased in a disturbing amount of causes related to alcohol abuse, casual sex ,bad language" (Molly ). However you can learn from these bad morals that these TV shows uphold. For example I watch Bad Girls Club, and the contestants on the show are always fighting each other and getting hurt from fighting one another. What positive lessons Am I get from this bad moral of fighting ? The positive lesson I'm getting from this bad moral of fighting is that if you're a person that is always fighting all the time you're going to get hurt and I don't want to be hurt so I just avoid fights.

Reality TV can actually be positive for instance the show The Biggest Loser which has "contestants who are trying to lose weight. It has "raised much more positive awareness about healthy living, nutrition, and body image." The Biggest Loser does a great job in communicating about the dangers and the consequences of compulsive eating" this is a good thing that The Biggest Loser communicates about the dangers and the consequences of compulsive eating" because if people don't know the dangers of compulsive eating or have someone to warn them about the dangers of compulsive eating it's going to be a lot of people with diabetes, heart disease, major depression, arthritis, bone deterioration and having strokes and this would not be a good thing so it is good that this show can help others and warn them about the dangers of compulsive eat (Borg),

Furthermore Reality TV Shows that also have positive influences is American Idol, The Voice, Dancing with the Stars, and So You Think You Can Dance,All these Reality TV Shows show novice talent and illustrate the power of “self”, and “fighting for what you believe.” "These shows sometimes reveal the ugly side of “dog eat dog” competition, the viewer still walks away with a deeper respect for a “great risks, foster great rewards” mentality."(Borg)

To come to conclusion Reality TV is a good bad thing. What I mean by this is that you can't just say that all Reality TV shows are bad or all Reality TV shows are good. Reality Tv can have both great influences and bad influences on people but what really matters is the good influences which help people in life and teaches people things about life they should know .
