CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

1.1   Background to the Study

The television is an electronic aim mechanical device for audio and visual instruction, information, education, advertisement, public, radio, and massive outreach at ease and in leisure. It is a modern scientific technological improvement (over radio) on dissemination or transformation of information and commucnaiton of idea, ideals and goals. The television, like the radio, has its own scientific and technological history. It is a wonderful achievement of man’s developmental instinct that has helped in easing the burden of existence, albeit with its misuse. Kirpatrido (1983:1330) defines the television in terms of an electrical transmission of distant objects, events and occasions, to a wider audience.

No doubts the television is among the best scientific and technological advancement that have helped in making the universe a global village. It is at the beck and call of every “Dick and Harny” that is desirous to get informed, instructed and entertained in “the global culture or auto-socialization”. Like the radio, it could be listened to and viewed personally or collectively; it could be mobile. In this wise, the television holds the capacity of widening man’s horizon in handling his existential predicament as well as the possibility of eclipsing man’s dignity and morals. The television  capture the two main empirical sources of receiving information viz: the eye visual and the (audio).
