I would like to suggest that for sixty to ninety minutes each evening all television broadcasting in the United States be forbidden by law.
Let us take a 36 , reasonable look at what the results might be if such a(an) 37 were accepted; families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction of TV, they might 38 together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our 39 —everything in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of 40 illness —are caused at least in part by 41 to communicate.
