The source which a slow but effective process if emmited out of. It is a method of hypnotizing young teens, but not all, so which the government can fool most into thinking that there really is such thing as freedom. They'll come to get me now that their plot is out...but you must know! The truth is out there...their always watching...always...I have to go into hiding now...but beware! It's all a conspiracy!
Beware the television...

Un-biased definition: A device invented in the very early 1950s that enables someone (usually a news agency or entertainment company) to broadcast information instantaneously from a tower to a receiver in the homes of the people.

Biased definition: The most common tool used by those in power to have the people waste their precious free time by sitting on a couch, not thinking a single heretical thought.
You watch eighteen hours of television a day, and then you notice that those eighteen hours you could have been spent attempting to end the injustices in the world. But it's too late for that now. Now go back and watch Glenn Beck and beat off.

1. A stupid plastic box with a CRT, plastic casing (sometimes bestowed with wood paneling if its from 1978), and a glass screen designed to keep people in their homes.

2. Corporatism's source of pocketing new customers with their ill-quality products.

3. Something to sit and stare at if you want to see the forecast, or see people get killed.
Television sucks, and its completely stupid, which is why I don't say "television"; I call it the "idiot box"
