```` New OP ````
(Many other topics are better(?)) Let's improve this one!
Sometimes Bear markets are the best chance to take action. Does anyone want to do some easy research on the sale prices of small cable/dish TV networks? BTC TV!
```` Old OP ````
The Tonight Show just did a joke about BTC turning 10 years old, did you see it? Did you just see BTC on NBC? When it goes on YouTube, please post a link, if you want to.

New topic: Don’t you think it would be better to start a new thread instead of confusing the shit out of everyone?
Old topic: I think it’s more interesting that the criminal, Raymond Redington, on the show The Blacklist uses bitcoin for all of his criminal activity.

it is more sad than interesting that the media has only been portraying bitcoin as something that criminals use. so far every movie, TV series, Talk shows that i have seen talking about bitcoin has only shown it as criminal's currency! BTW bitcoin is not yet 10 years old ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Well not all of them. I've seen two Japanese comedy shows thus far that mentioned it. Both characters who invested money into it went broke lol. I don't know if it's just because they're comedy, or if the general Japanese public actually see Bitcoin that way. Whatever though, I'm always amused when Bitcoin finds its way into pop culture references.

Bad news sells more so they will more often tell the bad side. On the other hand, bitcoin is such an amazing phenomenon that the goodness of it that is, peer to peer payments is relegated to the background and what is promoted is the latest investment where you can turn to a millionaire overnight.

It does not bothers me anymore, the more Bitcoin rises the more negativity will be there on the mainstream media. They all are controlled by big Financial Institutions and panic has started since 2017, they clearly know that the end is not too far. Such negative news are now not impacting the markets. So, sit back and relax.

The influence of money is what controls the media and therefore the content of that news. So there are no neutral media. Many TV shows deal with issues from non-neutral viewpoints, and thus people are entrenched in the ideas "that media created" about other countries. Once the government's view of cryptocurrencies has changed, we will see more positive. I do not think Ellen knows much about Bitcoin, She mentioned that toast wallet as a bitcoin wallet. There are a lot of TV-shows that have the same wording "just general information"

Bitcoin is mentioned fairly frequently on TV. I think it will soon reach the stage where it won't really warrant a new topic every time it happens. I could understand if they dedicated an entire segment on the show about it, but a brief namedrop isn't really substantial enough these days. Also, Jimmy Fallon is terrible. I don't know how people find his "comedy" funny. Here it is if anyone wants to judge for themselves. I didn't laugh once through the whole 5 minute clip.

it is because whenever there is a rise going on people make a lot more noise than usual and that noise even reaches TV. and that is one of the many reasons why bubbles such as $20k shape up and also why there was a lot of newbies in bitcoin because of it which crashed the market to this level.

There is a FOMO brewing...

Television likes to declare itself and the daring news that they have to grow ratings and since bitcoin is a global trend, they are trying to make the material that would become more popular. I never listen to television. They do everything only in their favor to become popular.

I haven't seen that but I have seen CSI mentioned bitcoin in 2015, way before things went crazy because of the bullish run. That was the last time I saw bitcoin on television since I haven't checked up on most news outlets and local TV ever since. Also, when I read or watch about bitcoin in mainstream TV or in the news, it appears to be positive at start then goes south right before the airing finishes. It only went positive when the prices were nearing $20k and almost every media outlets are creating news reports regarding that.

Not surprising, around that time the general public was discovering Bitcoin, you could pretty much hear about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies everywhere, it was probably the biggest boom the market has seen in a very long time. Plus, the fact that the whole thing about Bitcoin blew up during the uptred made people jump into the bandwagon, even the news on the tv, it was the it thing in december 2017. It's understandable that we're not hearing about Bitcoin that much nowadays, the hype around cryptos has died down, so there's no reason for tv channels to start talking about something that not people care or have forgotten. Things will be completely different once the prices goes up again.

Even I don't believe in the news on TV too often. If a news is only for building public opinion, then I will build trust in myself. And if I may hope, TV should broadcast news about BTC (when the price will rise above $ 10k to 20k). Thank you! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I really want to have cryptocurrency tv online with 24 hours live! Wouldn't be great for all of us? We can check the price from there and having also last news online. If they show us the news about the latest ICO projects milestones the market would go higher. If they would give some forecast about altcoins that would be great as well..
