Television is not what it used to be. I say this, because of the attention many networks bring to themselves. Pavlik states that the censorship that some stations have such as Arts & Entertainment (A&E), Home Box Office (HBO) and the Weather Channel do not censor much of the media they show. These types of stations have very little gatekeeping and display content such as violence, death, nudity, tragedy, etc.
Pavlik also states that since the digital age has began, video production has expanded greatly. Nearly anyone can log onto Youtube, create an account and begin to create and produce videos. However, Youtube does monitor videos to try and block content such as nudity, abuse and violence, but there are many videos and display abusive language and acts that make people want to commit suicide. So maybe this isn’t and advancement in the age of digital media.
