“As the man who brought you Archie Bunker, George Jefferson, Fred Sanford, and Mary Hartman, arguably four of the least well-educated characters ever seen on television, being asked to share my thoughts about education is a riot. But I’ll try. I don’t know if television belongs in the classroom, but TV is often a great source of education. Of course, it can educate for the good, or for the not so good. That’s up to the TV industry, which is a very big business, to decide. Unfortunately, the prospects are not good.” (posted 03/29/06)
