Chapter 6
1. How many cable channels do you watch regularly? What programs do you watch? What attracts you to a certain channel? I watch about at least about 12 different cable channels regularly but not all in one day. Some of the different cable channels that I watch are CBS, TBS, SciFy, TNT, Nickelodeon, Spike TV, and the CW. Some of the programs that I watch on these channels are Friends, CSI: NY, Justified, Supernatural, Family Guy, iCarly, and Spongebob Squarepants. What attracts me to these certain channels is because of the shows that they stations broadcast and what goes on during the programs. I love to enjoy what comes on the programs and how they keep me in suspense when they show clips of the new episodes that premieres the following week.

4. CNN and MTV have changed our society as well as the global culture. Have these changes been positive or negative? Explain. I believe that the changes of CNN were positive because CNN gives people events that are going on in the world today. It also presents even the small events go on in the world. But they talk about the major news stories on the television and they keep talking about them for almost a half hour. I believe that the changes for MTV were negative because originally it was a music station for people wanting to listen to music. But now the station was changed to have reality television shows that are just plain stupid and barely show music videos done by some of our favorite artists and make their videos shown early in the morning. After that, they just show programs of people doing normal things in their daily lives.
