Influence of Media 5

Representation refers to the idea that everything we see/hear in the media has been constructed. This can be seen in magazines, newspapers, radios, and other forms. For example, when talking about a politician, the idea of them is being constructed, not the actual person. "Codes" also play a big role in media representation,. they can range from language, color, clothing, and specific signs. This relates to my magazines because using a certain code to influence readers.
