  1. You can make, or purchase from an electronics gadget store, a degaussing (demagnetizing) coil for a few bucks.

    Start by making small circles around the center of your screen and move away while increasing the diameter of your circles.

    Edit:

    The second answerer reminded me of something. Every CRT television has a weak degaussing coil wrapped around the tube. You can also try turning the power on and off 4 times in a row. It may help if the problem isn't too severe. Don't try it more than 4 times in a row or you'll be in danger of overheating and burning out something in your start-up circuits.


  2. Unplug your television for a day or two, as long as the magnet has not caused serious / permanent damage, that should take care of it. It truly does have to be unplugged for more than a day though (and not just turned off) as electricity stays in CRT televisions for a long time after unplugging them.
