Dear Editor,
Why do newspapers carry so many advertisements for electronic equipment? Last Sunday I counted ads for seven kinds of televisions and thirteen kinds of radios in the Atlanta Journal. Besides that, there were pages and pages of ads for Citizens’ Band radios and tape recorders.
Don’t you realize what electronic equipment is doing to our daily life? Everywhere you go you may hear loud music and advertisements over radios; this continual noise is ruining(损伤)our ears. Husbands don’t talk to wives any more; they are always watching the news or a ball game. Children ruin their eyes (not to mention their minds) with endless hours of watching not only the programs for children but those for grown--ups as well. And worse, hidden microphone find out about our private lives, and computers keep records of personal information about us. Enough is enough! 1 think you should limit the amount of advertising of electronic equipment in the Atlanta Journal, otherwise it will make life unbearable for us all.
