RLS Thinking Questions

Link Back to Real Life Situation

• Has MTV impacted our society?
• Do we see what we see today on MTV what we see in our current society?
• Does MTV change our perspective about things we see in the real world?
• Does everyone listen to music/watch music videos?
• Does everyone watch MTV?
• What age group watches MTV?

To link our conclusion back to the RLS, what is seen on TV commercial, shows, and TV channels can change our knowledge through sense perception. Just watching these shows can influence your brain's psychological interpretation from this knowledge, even if you don't realize it.

MTV can have an effect on our lifestyles without us knowing. We can interpret many things differently like music and reality TV shows. These different influences can have an effect on our moral values of life.
