Talk show effect
Talk shows on electronic media are now very popular. Discussions on contemporary politics, government policies, the law and order situation, justice, trade and business, freedom of press and electronic media are the main topics, in general. Talk shows become lively when the discussants' arguments contain substantial information and logic. In most cases, however, the participants try to win by attacking their opponents with a loud voice and aggressive body language.
Can we expect talk show participants to be more respectful of each other's diverse viewpoints?
