Section, Letters sent by the readers of the newspaper "Latest News" Sunday January 23 this year, I found one that caught my eye, written by Don Julio Rivas Pavéz (Article at the end of page) in which it states its concern and discomfort in the television series TVN night, "40 something" showing drug use. The subject is shown as a common consumption, without making any value judgments teleseries Should put limits on this? Most soap operas reflect real life and drug use is a reality in a sector of the population, therefore, must be tested, the issue is that not all productions are critical consumption, which is certainly not illegal, but we must also remember that soap operas are part of role models and whether that practice is not shown as a negative, has been opposed by some, so you start to question the responsibility of television content.
Television has three main functions: to entertain, inform and educate, instead of the TV series began as a genre of entertainment net, and then to incorporate education and information content, due to penetration with the public, but remember that soap operas are not documentaries, news, campaigns of any sort, which seeks to represent all age groups.
night in the TV series we've seen characters using drugs as routine, "to hang" without question, judgments or criticism about not always shown as evil, but as one of the habits and vices the character of the moment, is what many do, is a reality, but the issue is that the soap operas sometimes idealize his characters, create idols to imitate characters successful, wealthy, attractive, enviable lifestyle and consumption is part of their life and nothing bad will it, on the contrary, feel and have a good time, therefore, this could confuse and display it as one of the many requirements to be one winner we see on screen, like whiskey and represents the upper class often associated with smoking sensuality, drug use could be associated with the holiday and success, so we must not take lightly.
few years ago the request was made globally to reduce or cancel the smoking of the characters in movies, series and soap operas, because this practice motivates viewers to consume cigarettes, meanwhile Health Council of Deputies Spain adopted by consensus on 20 October, the bill that tightens the regulation of snuff and that prohibits from January 2, 2011 to the media show images of smoking or snuff talk, one of the first censored in this practice were the participants of the reality show "Big Brother" who could show they were not smoking.
Do you have to do a show trial or negatively the consumption of drugs, alcohol or cigarettes in TV series or present as a vice acquired and normal for some people and characters?
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
