the trouble with television Robert MacNeil voices a strong opinion about television in a paragraph explain his opinion then tell whether you agree or disagree with him support your view with at least two pieces of evidence from MacNeil's essay or from your own reading or experience.

"English teacher" sooooo fake first of all they didn't give any answers so what would you be marking wrong

Hey all.

MacNeil’s opinion was that television was a waste of time. He says that the only thing Americans do more than watch TV is work and sleep, and that there’s better things you could do.

You should say wether or not you agree with him using evidence.

OMG SOMEONE JUST GIVE THE ANSWER STOP MAKING A BIG DEAL AND JUST HELP US OUT

There is no right answer to an essay, and foremost it is a matter of opinion; the catch is that they want you to specifically use the text to explain your opinion. This is why I struggle with essays: My opinion on something does not change because I read a text, and more often than not it is contrary to the text's message.

My advice is to put everything else aside, look at the text, and imagine that Robert is talking directly to you about it. Think that he's trying to convince you and then listen to what he's saying.
It's a starting point, at least.

Omg!! just give the answer we don't have time for this you are the teacher.

the people above me are wack

just give us the answer OMFG /!!!!

Guys, there is no cheating, all someone wants is the opinion of the author! What's wrong with that?

His opinion was he though tv was a waste of time and he feels like there are much more we can do beside sit there laying around watch tv

(anime) (gaming)

Please I need to get a good score so my grades can go up a little more

It's not breaking the honor code. It's not cheating. We come here to check our answers and to get help/advice on our work. @ Chris O, you stop being a "greedy raisin". This is what the website is for, homework help.

To everyone: if you feel bad for being on here and you're not cheating, don't feel bad, you just want people's opinions. If you're coming here to cheat and not care about school and your education, you should feel bad. You wouldn't be cheating if you cared and payed attention. Do your own work and don't rely on other people for your grades, because that is not your true knowledge.

I mean to be honest....if you had the answer you could've helped out, but going off and getting angry like that is needed you should stop taking this for granted and actually study.

Well said Important message

just giving the answer is breaking the honor code you greedy raisin.

Another thing, I don't think it's a good thing to come on here for an essay. An essay is supposed to be in your own words, not anyone else's. It's what you're thinking and the connections you are making when you read, keep that in mind. Copying someone else's essay is cheating or getting ideas, use your own ideas, you have a brain! Who cares if you suck, get the true grade.

omfg guys exactly, shes a TEACHER! NOT SOMEONE THATS HERE TO JUST GIVE YOU THE ANSWERS! I swear it seems like I'm the only one that gets that >:(

They Won't Give U Answer They Well Only Give U Some Example, U Should Do Ur Own Work

Stop it you are cheating.

I'm presently going through and marking all assignments with Jishka answers as zeroes. It is cheating... Your English Teacher
