It’s Official: To Protect Baby’s Brain, Turn Off Tv
A decade ago, the American Academy of Pediatrics suggested that parents limit TV consumption by children under two years of age. The recommendations were based as much on common sense as science, because studies of media consumption and infant development were themselves in their infancy.

10 Completely Unrealistic Tv Relationships
Some TV relationships are simply too good to be true. Sometimes the show's circumstances -- or the characters' reaction to them -- come across as wildly unbelievable. Sometimes two opposites just never seem to attract, or for reasons unknown, have a chemistry that never seems to click.

10 Shows That Changed Tv Forever
The airwaves bring a variety of sports, sitcoms, dramas, news and reality shows into our homes. But the best shows punch through these genres to create -- well, something new. So what are some of the shows that changed the way we view TV?

Oops: B-roll In Tv Report Said To Expose Chinese Military Cyberattack On Us
Oops: B-roll in TV report said to expose Chinese military cyberattack on US
Falun-Gong-founded newspaper Epoch Times reports that a "standard, even boring" Chinese military propaganda video broadcast in mid-July on state-run networks revealed screengrabs showing a Chinese military university actively engaged in cyberattacks against the US.
Now, some perspective on the Epoch Times itself is called for before you read. The New York-based publication is closely linked with the banned religious group Falun Gong, and is consistently critical of China and the government's treatment of Falun Gong (as you'll note in this piece). With that caveat out of the way, snip:
The documentary itself was otherwise meant as praise to the wisdom and judgment of Chinese military strategists, and a typical condemnation of the United States as an implacable aggressor in the cyber-realm. But the fleeting shots of an apparent China-based cyber-attack somehow made their way into the final cut.
The screenshots appear as B-roll footage in the documentary for six seconds—between 11:04 and 11:10 minutes—showing custom-built Chinese software apparently launching a cyber-attack against the main website of the Falun Gong spiritual practice, by using a compromised IP address belonging to a United States university. As of Aug. 22 at 1:30pm EDT, in addition to Youtube, the whole documentary is available on the CCTV website.
The screenshots show the name of the software and the Chinese university that built it, the Electrical Engineering University of China's People's Liberation Army—direct evidence that the PLA is involved in coding cyber-attack software directed against a Chinese dissident group.
(thanks, Paul Pettross)

Libya: Don’t Shoot, We’re Tv
Image: REUTERS/Paul Hackett. In Libya today, the Gaddafhi regime appears to be crumbling. Members of the media mark white flags with TV initials at the Rixos hotel in Tripoli, Libya, August 21, 2011. Heavy gunfire rang out near the Tripoli hotel where members of the foreign media are staying, a Reuters correspondent at the hotel said on Sunday. According to various sources on Twitter right now, most government security and minders have abandoned the Rixos. Matthew Chance of CNN just said that at least one Gaddafhi gunman with a green bandana is in the hotel lobby. International journalists are trapped on an upper floor.

Partnership for a Drug Free America Straight Edge TV Spots
Here are two long-lost Partnership for a Drug Free America produced video spots about Straight Edge. I'm not sure when these were made, but judging by the band logos in some of the shots, I'm going to guess mid to late 90's. This is noteworthy because until 1997, most of PDFA's funding came from Alcohol and Tobacco companies. After '97, they distanced themselves from those companies, but continue to receive much funding from pharmaceutical companies.

Extravagant all-star cover of "Let It Be" for Norwegian TV show
This very long promo for Norwegian show Gylne Tider (Golden Times) features a bunch of people I have not thought about in a while, greenscreened onto a Santa Monica beach background, covering The Beatles' "Let It Be." It made me feel simultaneously amused, perplexed, and old. Video link. (via Jimmy Kimmel)
