Incidents of violence against women on mainstream U.S. television has increased by 120 percent in the past five years, with the depiction of teen girls as victims rising by some 400 percent, the Parents Television Council said in a report on Wednesday.



The media watchdog said it was particularly disturbed by the use of violence against women in comedies and said it hoped TV networks and advertisers would stand up against the trend.



I just saw this on yahoo not too long ago. When I watch TV I guess I do see it but dont really notice it on the rise or anything. I mostly see it on shows like this.
