Television impacted politics in all of these ways except
permitting the public to judge politicians by their appearance and comfort on camera
forcing politicians to be honest because they were speaking directly to the american public on air
exposing more people to political messages and campaigns through television than were exposed from previous media outlets
using it as a platform for presidential candidates to “sell” their ideas to the public

Television impacted politics in all of these ways except forcing politicians to be honest because they were speaking directly to the American public on air.

Television gave elected officials and candidates for office an unprecedented way to speak directly to millions. Politicians, when they are speaking directly to the American public, are meant to please the public by speaking what people (or groups) want to hear and not what they really think, there is no honesty in that. And this kind of trend in television has led critics to question the message that is heard/passed.

Studies have shown that since the advent of TV, the American voting public has become increasingly disenchanted with politics. Some argue that the increasingly negative tone of ads and political commentary has driven many to abandon interest in politics.
