To me media violence is...

To me media violence is violent images, actions or encouragements of violence in video games, television, movies and magazines. Media violence could be a story on the news about rape, fighting, or even murder. Media violence could be simply a violent video game or a movie. It is all around us, in commercials, on the news and in almost all of our video games. Even a small child's game like lego starwars includes violence. I was playing this game (which is rated 10+) with my little brother lastnight and the object, he explained to me, is to beat-up the legos in the purple shirts to steal their money. This is an obvious example that media violence is all around us, encouraging kids that violence is the way to win and get what you want, like money. It's even in a legos game!
