so of course we know that TV can shape
our entire view of the world affect our
emotions our actions maybe even how we
vote a person who’s an expert not only
in comedy but also on the role of
television in influence our lives is a
good friend of mine Bill Nye the Science
Guy let’s find out what he has to say
about this topic American Museum of
Natural History sir if you would so
Norman Lear created television that we
had never seen before you know the
saying is our media reflects society
like whatever’s going on in society
you’re gonna see it in our media and our
newspapers and television shows but
Norman Lear gave us something to think
about and every one of those shows I
remember the scene and all in the family
when Archie Bunker has a beer Sammy
Davis jr. takes a sip of it and hands it
back to him and Archie Bunker has to
decide whether or not he’s going to take
a sip from a black man’s beer whoo and
everybody knew the implications like
this is why wouldn’t he sip it I mean
we’re all humans we’re all in this
together but somehow we feel that we’re
different from each other so Norman Lear
took three centuries of injustice and
slavery and crystallized it for you to
evaluate in just 30 seconds I mean that
is not easy to do but Norman Lear did it
on show after show
week after week year after year you’ve
got to respect that way to go mr. Lear
and changed the world bring on the light
I can’t believe the way people drive in
this town
