Stereotypes in Media
Media, such as books, movies, television shows, and commercials, frequently present examples of stereotypes. For example, marketing shown in Geek SquadTM branding or in cleaning commercials featuring housewives includes stereotypes. Companies use these stereotypical branding approaches to attract a specific audience and increase product sales. Consider the influence of this media on perceptions and communication. What media messages have influenced your perceptions of others?
