Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they oppose
specific points made in the reading passage.
In her lecture, the professor completely repudiates the idea conveyed in the reading passage. She provides specific reasons why the professors appearing on TV shows yield no benefit; to themselves, to their institution and even the public.
Firstly, she assets that it is indecorous for professors to appear in the television from their professional standpoint. It sabotages the reputation of professor in the academic community as someone who is not serious. It makes them entertainer rather than educators. While they may reach to the wider audience through TV, the deteriorated image among the scholars might exclude such professors from important conferences and meetings. As a result, their plausibility of getting research fund decreases.
Secondly, she claims that those professors who opt to appear on the TV shows can afford less time for the university activities. Presentation in shows requires a significant amount of time for preparation and rehearsal; in addition to the time required to travel to the studio and appearance on the show itself. This time is in fact cut off from the academic time of the professors: they can allocate less time for their research, students and other educational pursuits. The importance of academic activities for professors can in no respect considered comparable to the media related events.
Thirdly, the lecture refutes the very idea that professors, through TV shows, can benefit the public. While the professors have deep knowledge and insight on the given issue, the content of media programs are limited to surface idea. In fact, they are titular as compared to the academic discussions. The hosts (journalists) of these shows are also limited in expertise and interest about the profound research topics. As a consequence, in no aspect it can benefit the public lucidly.
Thus, adhering to the logical reasoning, the professor in the lecture successfully debunks the concept that academicians in TV shows can benifit themselves, their university and the public.
