From the three reveals I watched, I seen a number of tendencies. As an example, a majority of the characters have been white. Additionally, many of the characters have been males. The reveals largely depicted heterosexuals. This made me to conclude that the media business is overwhelmingly white and male. As such, white individuals and males are among the finest represented id teams on tv. Nevertheless, ladies and minority teams, i.e., Latinos and African-Individuals in addition to gay teams are nonetheless under-represented.
I seen some tendencies in how individuals have been portrayed. For instance, within the reveals, whites often tended to carry respected and well-paying jobs like medical doctors, accountants, scientists and so forth. Notably, most of those job positions have been dominated by males, and only a few ladies. The white characters additionally tended to be adorned in extremely modern and costly clothes. A few of them had a excessive sense of entitlement and therefore seemed down on those that have been below them (i.e., from decrease class). Nevertheless, most individuals from minority teams held low wage jobs, e.g., janitorial positions, housekeeping, receptionist, and cafeteria attendant jobs amongst others. As such, these people wore easy clothes and hairstyles. They have been additionally depicted as illiterate, smug, and aggressive. One of many reveals portrayed a homosexual couple. One of many males wore ladies’s garments and behaved like a girl.
I do consider that the reveals positively perpetuated stereotyping. They confirmed us that white males nonetheless proceed to dominate primetime reveals on the expense of different teams, notably ladies and folks of shade. I noticed a good portion of the knowledge from the textbook in motion within the reveals I watched. One such info is the tendency of the media to depict males holding extremely esteemed jobs. In line with the chapter, in relation to occupational depiction on tv, conventional gender stereotypes stay the place the proportion of feminine characters who maintain respected jobs may be very low in comparison with these of male characters. The opposite info pertains to depiction of destructive stereotypes in relation to minority teams. In line with the chapter, movies are inclined to depict African-Individuals in a destructive manner. That is true as within the reveals I noticed, most individuals of shade held low-class jobs and have been perceived as illiterate and lacked decorum.
