representation theory

Stuart Hall - Representation 

opposition, negotiated, preferred readings 


Opposition: when an audience reads a text in the opposite way the media intended to.
Negotiated: audience is allowed  to bring their own experience alongside the medias intentions. 
Preferred readings: when an audience reads a text in the way that the media intended it to. 

Stuart Hall believes in stereotypes and that they are often negative and are the result from inequality. 

HEGEMONIC POWER:  dominant groups in society controlling those less powerful.
