As un-liberal as it may be for me to say, yes, I agree that TV violence is bad for children. The article does state, "The analysis argued against the idea that aggressive children seek out TV violence, or that the findings were due to the participants' socioeconomic status or intelligence, or their parents' childrearing practices." However, it also does not state that those things were taken into account. Perhaps they were, but if parents aren't working to help their children to understand what they're watching and to place it in context, then you can't systematically blame the TV.
