One critic has argued that Vonnegut portrays television as "a kind of desensitizing, numbing, and clearly thought-stifling, rather than thought-provoking, medium" that is partly responsible for the state of society. Do you agree or disagree with this interpretation of this story? Explain your opinion

The correct answer is : Television is not partly to blame for the society portrayed in the story.

Explanation:

In the story, the handicaps were responsible for the numbing, desensitizing, and clearly thought-stifling going on in it. I think television was responsible for creating and provoking thoughts because Hazel cried because of "Something real sad on television,". My opinion is that Television is not partly to blame for the society portrayed in the story.

in   ¨and yet the books¨   by czelaw miloz the tone is positive since it tells us that when we touch a book, it starts to live and the perspective is in the third person and turns once into the first person. in "the rhinoceros" by eugene ionesco the tone is illogical and absurd   and the perspective is in the third person since it is a play.
