Dana Stevens argues that watching TV doesn’t make you any smarter but at the same time its not going to make you any dumber. According to Stevens, “the medium seems neither like a brain-liquefying poison nor a salutary tonic.” but instead TV is dismissive of major controversies such as the torture of prisoners or how it portrays Muslims. Stevens argues against Johnson’s claim that TV is a tool for brain enhancement by saying “that it is hilariously bogus.”
