I would throw away my TV but the wife won't let me. :D Before we moved in
together I was free of that rotten box for a good 7 years. Once you start to
see it in the house again do you realize just how poisonous and dangerous it
is to society, at least on the commercial channels.
Here in Australia we do have two channels that focus on news, foreign content
and documentaries that for the most part appear to above the usual slime but
these are a rare oasis in the sea of deceit.
So now there is a "Smart TV" in our house but I will never let it get a
network connection so at least it's functionality is limited to being a dumb
screen.
