MEDIA VOILENCE

Violence in the media has affected young adults and children for the worst. Violence in games influence some kids choices and responsibilities to them selves, such as the game grand theft auto, the violence in that game is not only vulgar and unnecessary it is irrelevant and makes kids see a world that has to do with drugs and guns and killing and just udder violence. The media doesn’t care on who it affects they only care on what kind of money will come out of the game and how much money they will need to spend to make the game, who plays doesn’t matter to them it all revolves around profit. By the time a child is 18 they would have witnessed on television or in video games over 200,000 acts of violence including 40,000 murders and what kind of picture is a kid supposed to get out of a movie or a video game that shows all of this violence and gore, that killing is ok? That the cool people do it?
