Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they oppose specific points made in the passage
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 world. These television appearances are of great benefit to the professors themselves as well as to their universities and the general public. Professors benefit from appearing on television because by doing so they acquire reputations as authorities in their academic fields among a much wider audience than they have on campus. If a professor publishes views in an academic journal, only other scholars will learn about and appreciate those views. But when a professor appears on TV, thousands of people outside the narrow academic community become aware of the professor’s ideas. So when professors share their ideas with a television audience, the professors’ importance as scholars is enhanced. Universities also benefit from such appearances. The universities receive positive publicity when their professors appear on TV. When people see a knowledgeable faculty member of a university on television, they think more highly of that university. That then leads to an improved reputation for the university. And that improved reputation in turn leads to more donations for the university and more applications from potential students. Finally, the public gains from professors’ appearing on television. Most television viewers normally have no contact with university professors. When professors appear on television, viewers have a chance to learn from experts and to be exposed to views they might otherwise never hear about. Television is generally a medium for commentary that tends to be superficial, not deep or thoughtful. From professors on television, by contrast, viewers get a taste of real expertise and insight.
University classrooms, offices, and libraries are mostly places for professors in doing research or lecturing their students. Nowadays, professors also appear as guests on television news programs and multiple documentaries show to give commentary about social events. However, even it benefits different aspects, being on the public media also have disadvantages for the professors themselves.
First of all, it is not beneficial for the professors to present in a television show. Being on a public program would have effects on the professor's reputation. Instead of being appreciated by other scholars, the professor would receive doubts for tending to be entertain than serious. Also, other experts would acknowledge about the professor appear on television are funded to do research.
Secondly, television programs waste a lot of time. The process to be on screen is not as simple as it seems. The professors have to prepare what to talk, makeup, rehearse many times until they can appear in the media. Instead of wasting time on these activities can be used for educating students and doing research.
Finally, not all television companies want deep academic information for the viewers to watch. Most of them on focusing the title of the researches as click baits to attract audiences.
To sum up, the professor will receive less benefit from being on television programs or documentary shows.
