  5. Edutainment aka Entertainment Education (E.E.) education + entertainment First Known Use: 1973 – The act of learning through a medium that both educates and entertains

  6. We are being educated while entertained every day but don’t think of it that way… Tony is diagnosed with HIV, but comes to terms with this diagnosis and goes on to live a full life with a new wife and child. George’s 14-year-old son, Max, is wetting the bed. Concerned, Max’s parents take him to the pediatrician where the doctor diagnoses Max with a urinary tract infection. The FBI investigated a situation where patients had received bone grafts from a donor who had terminal cancer (mesothelioma), which resulted in many of the recipients becoming sick themselves.

  7. America loves medical dramas! Fall 2012 on Fox Just to name a few!
