Professors are normally found in university classrooms, offices, and libraries doing research and lecturing to their students. More and more, however, they also appear as guests on television news programs, giving expert commentary on the latest events in
The article discusses that if proffesors appear as guests on television news programs these televisin appearances will create great benefits to professors themselves as well as to their universities and the general public. The passage provides three reasons to support that. In contrast, the professor in the lecture refutes all these three reasons by stating that these reasons are not convincing.
First, the article claims that professors by publising vies in academic journals only allow to other scholars to learn about these views, but by being in television programs they can have a lot of viewer. However, the professor describes that most of the professional professors do not have time to this kind of works and being in television programs is just suitable to ordinary professors who really do not have enough money to do their experiments. Furthermore, expert professors have been invited to professional scientific academies not to an entertaining program. So, the mentioned reason in the article is not true.
Second, the reading argues that universities benefit from such appearances because university receive positive publicity. In spite of this view, the lecture explains that such appearances take too much time of professors. They ahve to spend their time to travel or for preparing to the show. In this way, they do not have enough time to communicate with their students and also, their absence in the university can cause problems. Consequently, the text's reason is not true.
Third, the reading asserts that the public can benefit from professors' appearing on television. While the lecture describes that most of the time this kind of programs just need academic titles and detailes about different subjects, but professors have a lot of things to present. People can gain this kind of reports from other television programs. As you can see, professors's appearance in television programs are not ony useless but also time-consuming.
