Examples Of Being Platform Stereotypes

The concept of being platform agnostic, meaning having no preference for where we access our media content.(Pg. 41) An example of being platform agnostic, is when streaming different shows or movies, we have a variety of options that have very few different factors. So at the end of the day it doesn’t matter where we watch it as long as we have the instant gratification. I never quite considered being platform agnostic, I didn’t realize that there was a word for it. When I think about it though it is extremely relevant, I feel that sometimes we can be so eager to get what we want instantly that it doesn’t matter where we watch our shows as long as we watch them. If there is a factor in where we watch our content it’s probably the quality of the content. Another determining factor is that it’s giving the audiences more power to choose what they want to watch and when they want to watch it. …show more content…

31) We have an abundance of different platforms. You have the option of watching a movie from the comfort of your own living room through your smart tv, in a movie theater on the big screen, from your car at the drive in, or even on a big blank sheet in a cemetery (Hollywood Forever Cemetery). Different platforms allow for different people to access media in whichever way they would like to or feel more comfortable doing so. The prices vary for all of those options as well as people who are aware of all of those options. I would assume it would vary on location as well as the book states on media literacy (Pg. 31) I would assume that those who are media literate would have access and know where to look for different

Fuck the monarchy. Fuck the monarchy. Fuck the monarchy. Harry doesn’t know how long it’s been since he began the grueling task at hand; doesn’t know how many hours he has been crouched down on the floor of the main passage hall, sponge in hand, scrubbing away at the collected grime nestled between the crevices. It’s only been three days since the humiliating scene at the great hall with the crown prince and he’s almost certain that he already has worked more than any of the service people combined.

Perception of aging and BSN core competencies discussion My perception of aging and senility were different when compared with the facts on aging pre-assessment quiz. The prevalence of individuals that have symptoms of dementia is much higher than I believed. Another misconception I had was believing elderly people were happier than younger individuals. Honestly, the thought of retiring, experiencing the freedom to spend time with loved ones, and enjoying hobbies would lead me to think elders would be happier than younger people.

Rhetorical Impact of Political Advertisments For several generations, political advertisements have used any means necessary to obtain a grasp on their audience’s attention, as well as their favor. The use of rhetoric coupled with metaphors translates messages to the audience that becomes more relatable, and perhaps persuades some to believe their argument to be more believable. Political advertisements that successfully expand their voter base follow certain techniques to appeal to an audience, such as the advertisement "Big Bird". This ad supported by Barrack Obama is intended to devalue the reputation of Mitt Romney during the 2012 presidential election through the usage of metaphorical satire.

Family Stereotypes The aforementioned sitcom, One Day at a Time, also presents stereotypes in family life and conflict resolution within the familial unit. The show continues a common sitcom stereotype in which the main characters easily resolve a conflict, without anyone being affected after the episode ends (Carvalho, Leite, and Nichele 19). Although sitcoms are supposed to just be lighthearted and repetitive, the lack of character growth stifles the show’s ability to portray nuanced characters and situations within the family. This can lead to sexist stereotypes in family life being presented, as shown in the episode of Elena's quinceañera:

With television being a powerful source of persuasion, presidential candidates began to use it as a campaign tactic in 1952. After witnessing that it was a successful tactic they have continued to use it until the most recent presidential campaign in 2012. Over the course of all these years the American people have seen all kinds of presidential campaign ads. Some were plain and boring following the norm of having the candidate talk straight from a podium, while others took creativity to another level and did not even show the candidate in the add but just a little girl and images of the atomic bomb. The ads also differed in levels of positivism and negativism; some only focused on the good qualities of the candidate and the actions he would

Auletta arrives at several conclusions regarding the future of television, but the thought that interested me most was his views on how the different genres of television between streaming providers (such as Netflix) and broadcast television (such as Time Warner and CBS) would be split as time goes on. Auletta believes that broadcast networks, in an effort to prevent being crushed by Netflix competitively, will have to offer more of what Netflix does not have at the moment: live television events. To quote Auletta directly: “What Netflix and the other new platforms still can’t offer is the kind of appointment viewing…that has been the mainstay of broadcast television and certain cable operators… The future of traditional television…is in airing more live events, which attract higher advertising rates” (Auletta 14). Also, he states that “Netflix will have to invest further in original content” (Auletta 17) in order to remain competitive with broadcast television and cable network such as HBO, which have traditionally dominated in this

Factors can exist in in the perceiver, the target, or the situation. For example, when you look at your target, your interpretation of what you see is influenced by your personal characteristics (Book pg.153). Things that are important to you matter in these situations and the context in which perceptions are interpreted have an impact. I also believe that stereotypes play a factor in this as well. Being African American, I know many of times I have experienced situations where on the job that sly remarks have been made or actions have been displayed towards me.

Three out of the six sources that I have described above note that campaigns who use a negative tone in their ads see a greater turnout in the polls. For this reason, I believe that the first view is the most important in measuring how the public is affected by political advertisements. Negative advertisements have always sparked my attention, and for this reason, I feel that derogatory political ads would be the driving factor in forming public opinion. Theory

People get categorized by stereotypes everyday just by outward appearances or the group of people they are associated with. A stereotype is a preconceived notion about a group of people. People form fixed images of a group that are assumed that all group members act and behave is a particular way. A person essentially gets stereotyped by being “guilty by association” of a particular group. All stereotypes get based off of a bit of truths that all group members similarly have.
