World Television Day

Like we need a day to celebrate something most of us all already addicted to.

In 1996, the United Nations general assembly declared November 21 World Television Day. The UN recognized television as having an increased impact on decision making as well as being an ambassador for the entertainment industry. Television is a symbol of communication and globalization that educates, informs, entertains and influences our decisions and opinions.

I think these days the user of televisions has changed much with streaming and downloading on smart devices available. I fur one prefer to watch a "box set" without the interruption of adverts etc.
