How the Media creates Stereotypes...

  • Did everyone hear about how Abercrombie and Fitch was getting sued for not having any black models in their magazines, or on their bags, and how they didn't have black employees working in their stores? Does this disturb anyone else besides me? After this whole incident, now I walk into the stores and I see mayb one or two people of a different race working, and I've looked at the catalog and have seen one black model. Even with this one model or one employee, Abercrombie now feels that they are "diverse" and that there shouldn't be a problem, but does that really prove anything? Or are these people just there so Abercrombie can keep their good image?
  • How many times do you see women getting liposuction to look like their favorite actress or model? There is that new show on MTV called I want a famous face, where MTV is actually promoting this. It disturbs me that some one would want to change their look that much, and to do it on public television is even more disturbing. However, media all over the world is promoting this. And young children, young adults and even grown adults look up to these perfect models that they see in magazines or on tv. The media puts out the image that this is what the "perfect" woman/man should look like, and that everyone should strive to look like them and act like them.
  • Another big thing with the media and stereotypes is, how many times has a black woman won best actress at the Academy Awards? Once. Halle Berry. She was recognized for her talent, and was not put down for her color or her background. This really shows how much our society has grown, however actors and actresses are still having a hard time finding jobs because of the image that the media wants to put out. During my english class, an actress came to talk to us about the Broadway play she is in on Broadway, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, and when asked which she liked better, Broadway or Hollywood, she replied that she loved Broadway because everyone on Broadway has talent, however in Hollywood, if you can "semi-act" and you have the image that they are looking for for the movie, you will probably be hired before someone who has amazing acting talent, but isn't "hot" enough or whatever it is that makes them not consider you.

    These are just three examples of how the media effects stereotypes and causes stereotypes. I think it's sad how much our society follows these images and how much people rely on the media for their own self image, instead of just being who they are.
