Looking for connection? Turn on the TV, columnist argues
Original: If you’re looking for connection, turn on the TV
A college newspaper column argues that television, often dismissed as isolating, can actually foster genuine human connection. The writer suggests shared shows give people common ground for conversation and comfort, and that watching together or discussing favorite series builds relationships rather than replacing them. The piece invites readers to rethink assumptions about screen time and loneliness.
Why now: It challenges the common belief that TV watching is a lonely, isolating habit.
