So true Franz! Excellent haiku!
I agree with your comment about where evil lurks, the difference is that TV brings it right into our homes.We become inured to it's invasion and are addicted to it's allures.Children that have grown up with MTV are in a class by themselves, where anything goes.They are taught to idolize the stars and ignore their parents, and they have sone so.Especially when BOTH parents are at work all day It's frightening...
