can broken tft monitor be dangerous?

i have a tft monitor which someone gave me that is broken. someone else said if the screen is broken it can be poisonous or dangerous. can anyone tell me if this is true? should it be thrown out or can the screen be replaced?

There's nothing dangerous about it, but it's more than likely beyond economical repair.
