Summarize Argument
Jane argues violence among teenagers shouldn’t be shown in movies and on television, at least not in shows for young people. Why not? Because movies and television programs are influential, and many currently show violence among teenagers, meaning those programs likely cause young people to act violently.
Notable Assumptions
Jane assumes influential media containing violence between teenagers cause young people to act violently. This means assuming that young people are exposed to the violent depictions of teenagers and that those depictions have an impact on their behavior.
