Reflection of whether the violence from the media has affected people in what they do in life?

We have clear indications that the long-term effects of exposure to media violence will lead to undesirable social consequences. These negative social effects will undoubtedly be accelerated as violence becomes more graphic in an effort to attract and hold film and TV audiences.
In looking over the evidence of the increasing levels of film and TV violence it is now taking to satisfy viewers and the resulting effects on society, David Puttnam, a noted film director, simply observed, "We are destroying ourselves."

TV producers clearly face a dilemma in dealing with the apparent conflict between the negative effects of TV violence and positive program ratings
