Another thing I would like to say about Media Literacy is that in all of the commercials, they are always advertising make up, and things to make you look thinner. They are never sending any positive messages. When young girls see this, they question whether they are thin enough, or pretty enough. When I was looking at makeup commercials, I found this commercial with Drew Barrymore, and they things that she is saying isn't good. " Department Store look" what the heck is that? She is also saying you'll look beautiful with the makeup on. Take beautiful back with tons of makeup, thats an awful message.
Heres another commercial for clothing, and its Miley Cyrus new clothing line being sold at Walmart.
There's going to be so many young girls who will want to buy Miley's clothes, because she is such a huge media influence. They want to dress like her.
Most of the commercials that are on TV have celebrities on them. They help sell the product, which makes the company get the big bucks. The celebrities are what influence the media. They can either send good messages, or bad, and right now the media is sending a lot of bad messages.
