Nothing is really real unless it happens on television.

Television is an invention that permits you to be entertained in your living room by people you wouldn't have in your home.

Television deprives children of their imaginations.

The medium is the message.

It is television's primary damage that it provides ten million children with the same fantasy, ready-made and on a platter.

I don't know how long a child will remain utterly static in front of the television, but my guess is that it could be well into their thirties.

Whether or not you love television, you've got to admit that it certainly loves itself.

Dealing with network executives is like being nibbled to death by ducks.

The primary danger of the television screen lies not so much in the behavior it produces as the behavior it prevents-the talks, the games, the family activities and the arguments through which much of the child's learning takes place and his character is formed.

Today's audience knows more about what's on television than what's in life.
