The lecture and the reading provide two opposing views in regard to the consequences of university professors attending as guests on television programs. On the one hand, the reading states that it would benefit the public, the university, and the professor, personally, but on the other hand, the lecture provides contrasting opinions - by looking into this in another perspective.
First of all, the reading provides the benefits for the professor by appearing on the TV - appreciation, and enhancement of their importance. However, the professor in the lecture claims that these professors could lose their reputation among fellow professors by appearing on TV. Moreover, the portray themselves as if they are entertaining the public rather than educating them. So, these professors might face negative effects - not being invited to the meetings and not being granted money for research.
What's more, the narrator's notion that the students and university gains from the professors' appearance on the television are false, as per the lecture. Professors need to spend a lot of time for preparation of the content, rehearsing, commuting and getting ready to appear on the TV. If this time was spent by doing research and spending with the students, it could be beneficial according to the lecture. Hence, the opinion stated in the reading - this helps in improving the reputation of the university and the students - is countered in the lecture.
Finally, while the reading states that these programs could be beneficial to the viewers as they could get the sense of "real" knowledge, the professor counters this argument that TV programs do not want to share the entire, in-depth knowledge. They only discuss titles and overview of the content and this would also be given by a TV reporter with some practice. Therefore, in the professor's eyes, these programmes are not beneficial to the public as well.

Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
It is not exactly right on the topic in the view of e-grader. Maybe there is a wrong essay topic.
