Violence In U.S.A.
Sir, —Every statement in the letter from Robert and Ann Stowell is true. Causes of the prevailing widespread violence are: war and the heroism it engenders are still glorified, though war severely exacerbates international disputes instead of solving them, and effectively sows the seeds of future wars; the publication of propaganda favourable to “our side” and naturally some suppression of items which might favour “the other side”; and the commercial exploitation of violence on radio and television.—Yours, etc., SETH NEWELL. June 10, 1968.
