You have no permission to be ignorant. Here's a few awesome quotes from the Church:

You Must Know: “A training that grounds a man in the basic principles governing the work of the media in human society, as explained above, is nowadays clearly necessary for all. The means of communication genuinely enrich man’s minds if their character and function is understood. On the other hand, men who do not sufficiently appreciate their importance, may find their liberty diminished.” (comunio et progresio 1971))

The good: “It can “bring about a deeper knowledge and stud of humanity and, with the aid of appropriately heightened dramatic effects, can reveal and glorify the grand dimensions of truth and goodness.” (Inter Mirifica) (inter mirifica, Vatican II)

The Truth “Every communication must comply with certain essential requirements and these are sincerity, honesty and truthfulness. Good intentions and a clear conscience do not thereby make a communication sound and reliable. A communication must state the truth.” (Comunio et progresio P 17)
