Too much shouting on TV

Sir,
It is with great concern that I note the bad quality of Cypriot television programmes.

Most disturbing of all, however, is the systematic violence and shouting of actors on locally produced shows.
I am sure that, over time, this influences the behaviour of people on the island, and especially young people.
I sincerely hope that TV channel bosses will open their eyes to this problem and ensure that better quality programmes are made.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
