Bringing the television into the house

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to bring a television into the house if the children go to the neighbors and the wife goes to her family to perform the late-night prayer?

Answer:
He should not yield to it; he should not put it in the house, because it brings news that are harmful to him and his descendants. He should leave that alone, and his going to the neighbors for some time is better than its presence in his house.
