Violence

It depends. If you're talking about news, then I think the media needs to keep in mind that they are serving the public with information and that means a public of all ages. When they present violent material they need to consider the age groups that could potentially view it. I think you can definitely present a violent story without having to show it or go into too much detail and still get the point across. If you're talking about a television show then I just think they need to keep in mind the time of day their show will be aired. I don't think showing violence is a bad thing for adults who are mature enough to handle it, it's the younger audience that I worry about seeing it.
