World Television Day is being observed today (Sunday) to raise awareness about growing significance of television in today's changing world.
The day is celebrated across the globe on November 21 to mark the increasing impact of the early 20th-century invention in the contemporary world.
The United Nations General Assembly proclaimed 21st November as World Television Day recognition of the increasing impact of television on decision-making by bringing the world attention to conflicts and its potential role in sharpening the focus on other major issues.
World Television Day is not so much a celebration of the tool, but rather the philosophy which it represents.
Television represents a symbol for communication and globalization in the contemporary world,” says the United Nations’ website.
As per UN’s website, “The interaction between emerging and traditional forms of broadcast creates a great opportunity to raise awareness about the important issues facing our communities and our planet”.
Even though people create content on several platforms, television continues to be the single largest source of video consumption.
