I went with yes, but it depends (like so many other things) on how you use it. I think comedy is becoming fouler and dumber than it has ever been resulting in the same traits in people. There are many channels dedicated to learning however that are of great public benefit. I just choose not to watch pointless drivel.

Hollywood producers aim at titillating content for the ADD crowd. The words and content get lost in the pictures.

Compare the difference between radio, print and TV news. The TV will show a car chase without commercial interruption for 2 hours, but won't cover the Iranian nuclear threat.

TV depends on graphics for its medium. Humans need more.

Nothing that can be any worse than the biblical stories of the holy books of any religion and the superstions that are taught.

Maybe a bit, but poisoning is a harsh word. But even the G rated programs I would consider "poison"
