Chapter 9: Television, reinforcing stereotypes
Quiz Question: Do stereotypes of the working class on television influence how people view this class of people?
Answer: Yes, like most stereotypes it gives people a false idea of the group and leads them to believe notions about the working class that are not completely true.
you have to admit though, if a show was made with "normal" lifestles then it would not be entertaining, but a good video though
ReplyDeleteNice video! Something different then the norm. Good job on the research.
