Media are responsible for changes in languages. Is this change damaging the language?
The TV should use the standard language, but not always is doing it. For example in the news the language used is the "standard", but if we look at tv series, the language is a language used with a common vocabulary, full of vulgarities.
Otherwise, the source of all is the Internet. Tv is in the Internet, so what should concern us is the internet.
Internet is a way where people can comunicate each other, and the way they communicate is written. This is the beginning of the problem among the young people, and not so young. They write a sentence with shorter words, for example, "how r u?", "xx"...
Now is so extended that we can talk about a new language in internet. Not everyone can understand this language, only the people who use it.
In my opinion the change that media are doing to language is negative, because the internet language is extending and there are a lot of grammar mistakes.
My conclusion is that the media has a terrible influence in the language usages and in the social behavior, and it could get worse.
This is a clear example of a generalized vulgar phrase:
