Should Prisons Have Color Televisions

There are many theories on whether criminals must have color televisions. Some say it keeps the natives from rebelling and therefore means less stress on prison guards and less labor, with fewer riots. The others such as for example victims of crimes are completely outraged and several taxpayers will also be angry. Recently this subject was raised within an on line think tank and a think tanker stated;
