Ideology AND Media
When I was back home, I had an instructor who called television "L'enfer vision," literally translated in English it is "the vision of hell." His religion forbid their members to watch television, just because of message it portrait. When I was little, I was really septic about his ideology ( ideas reflecting the social needs and aspirations of an individual, group, class, or culture.)But when I see what is on TV this day, I wonder... I was chocked when I saw one day ON TV the number of young teenagers girl who accept to get pregnant so they can become famous. Either the intention was purely educative or not, that life style is becoming or it is already unfortunately, the ideology of many Americans family.
OMFG that is so true, I pretty much wrote my whole blog as an branch off yours. America has turned teen pregnancy from taboo to fast cash in your pocket.
ReplyDeleteTeen Mom is a horrible show! Tv is just getting worse and worse as time goes on. Whatever happened to the cartoons we watched when we were younger?
ReplyDeleteyou are so right! someone else posted in a blog that 70 percent of RI women get pregnant before they are 20....so there is definitly something to be said about that.
