What is out role as a television
consumer?

Well, in all honesty, it is whatever
the t.v companies want it to be. We are so brianwashed by a box we
stare at for hours that we would do crazy things for it!
“Want to keep watching this channel?
Well pay us more” Sure!! “See our lovely commercials? Well buy
all that stuff!” Okay!! We play the role of the consumer by
accepting everything thing companies tell us to do, and to continue
to watch everything they put out. Our role, in reality, to the follow
their demands and just continue to do what we're doing which is
watching our shows.
Also, from the companies point of few,
our role is word of mouth. They rely on us to chat about our
favourite shows so more and more people begin to watch. Even with all
their advertising, more times than none people will start watching a
show when they are influenced by someone they trust and someone they
share similar interest with.
So really, our role as a television
consumer is to follow their orders and waste away in front of the
television. It sounds horrid, but hey, they have me hooked.
