My dad decided to organize my room while I was out (by organize my room, I mean shove all my stuff in front of the TV) He managed to shave a bunch of magnets in front of my TV, now the screen is all messed up, with blotches of green and purple. How can I fix it?

You cant fix it. The magnets have permenatly damaged your TV. It is time for a new one.

It's pretty screwed now. You might be able to claim on insurance. It's worth giving them a call.

Some TVs have a mechanism to fix themselves of this problem..
I've done that countless times trying to draw a rainbow
I would unplug it and wait for a day or so then turn it back on and off, try to reset your television to factory defaults
If you need any help just
Pm me

Sorry for double post.
The process is called "degaussing"
