Not the section, but actual media as in newspapers, news, television, etc. Some may argue that this belongs in media, but I don't feel that way because this is more about how media is contributing towards the general population's loss of ability to cope with reality.
If you've had a bad day, you can turn on the tube and either watch other people's problems to forget about you own, or watch other people live large and try and identify with those people, thus forgetting about your own problems still.
Sometimes, you just gotta take things head on and not set them towards the back of your mind to where nothing gets done and you stay in the same situation you are trying to forget. Sure, watching a little t.v. here and there isn't bad, or getting on the internet to chat on a forum for a little isn't bad either, but it's when you do those things in excess and you just become a shell is when it's gone bad. I know I might spend a little too much time on the internet, but I try and take my problems head on instead of letting it build up in the back of my mind till it's too much to take and I can't do anything about it anymore.
Maybe I'm making too big of a deal about it, I don't know. How do you feel about it?
