TV

Specialization makes any work done more effectively, in my opinion. For example a very known T.V channel in the Arab world, MBC, created 5 other MBC’s (mbc Arabia , mbc2 ,mbc3, mbc4 ,and mbc action),each for a specific kind of programs or shows which made MBC a very popular channel that is watched by a huge audience. On the other hand, in media, especially T.V, people are looking for variety in content. Sometimes we are just overwhelmed with life’s problems and watch to watch friends for some laughs, some other times we really need to know what’s going around the world so we change for news, and so on. Due to the great boom in recent technology, many organizations have been able to start their own T.V channels and publish their shows that support their goal whatever that was. As a result of the normal need for people to change and for the channels to be more effective and successful, I think it’s the right thing to have specialized T.V channels. There are many examples of channels that succeeded, such as IQRA as a religious channel, Al Jazera and CNN as a news channels, MBC as an entertaining channel, and a lot more, more over, there are those channels which failed to introduce a good image and as a result people rejected them.

After all, having a religious channel doesn’t mean we have to watch only them, nor means we have to watch nothing else. In my opinion it means they are specializing to give their best. People who criticize them for being strict didn’t actually give them the right to express their pure ideas, because if they do not agree with their content they can change the channel any time but they can’t stop them from expressing it, especially if a space is given for every one else to say whatever they want. On the other hand, whatever is said on a religious channel, whether its Muslim ,Christian ,or Jewish, it doesn’t have to be right all the time, sometimes the information is questionable, and we have to look it from credited sources because we are an educated audiences.

Finally, I think religious channels are good; it opens the path for people to communicate, interact, and learn about one of the most important aspects of their lives which is religion. Recently, T.V has been watched for a lot more that just entertaining, its also for educating and interacting.
