Give me examples of how the media construct reality? Like for social conventions, morals & more?

Statistics lie and liars use statistics. besides how many sides are there to a coin....





WRONG How's that for an example, you thought heads and tails, but what of the side of the coin used for thickness... I bet you even think the biggest crook in American History, called Honest Abe, didn't take away your rights under the Constitution...





The real reason they no longer want the pledge of allegiance in school is they don't want you to think of this as a Republic... has nothing to do with GOD...





Look at the B.B.C. and other World news about Global Warming and you might see what it is I'm trying to share with you, about how US news is a major part of the brainwashing of the American People!

Reply:When the journalist is training the golden rule is how ,when ,,where and why, they are suppose to stick to the facts, but most of the time they sensationalise the news to get good coverage or the front page, or just to get people to read the article that was written; it is important they get their facts right or else they could be sued. so basically they try and stick to the facts even though the headlines might be a bit colorful. Hope I have helped.
Reply:Body image- media idealizes the very skinny body type for female actors, models, singers, etc. This shapes reality by making women feel like this is what the have to look like in order to be considered beautiful
Reply:--Body image. The majority of people we see on TV, in magazines, etc. are very underweight, and most of them are famous (both because of and as a result of being on TV/in movies/magazines). So we think that success and beauty=thinness, and that being fat--actually, just being a little chubby, or even being the right weight for your body, is "wrong" and "bad."


--A lot of 'bad guys' in movies and TV's are minorities...hence the stereotype that, for example, black people are more prone to violence.
Reply:If the media reports something wrongly it could have a big effect on the world. For example if today they reported that cigarette prices were going to rise tomorrow and they don't, it could really impact the economy. Therefore, media is able to construct reality? That's what I think, I'm not REALLY sure what you're saying though.
