You first...very nice reflection to the documentary. You first provide a very detailed and clear analysis of how Disney associates with cultivation theory. I like the part in your third paragraph where you use an example to demonstrate two perspectives on media effects. Because of this I can see that you understand those concepts really well and can relate them with each other. I really agree with your analysis about Cultivation Theory, because from the documentary I feel that Disney certainly portrays women and some "minority groups" stereotypically. and those stereotypical images would influence children's perception towards those groups of people. the examples of Disney's portrayal of Latinos and Indians will also demonstrate this point.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03698527728910948712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6686334347568576872.post-69782366212862997892013-12-01T15:18:35.215-06:002013-12-01T15:18:35.215-06:00The cultivation theory, which claims that people&#...The cultivation theory, which claims that people's worlds are cultivated through long term media exposure, is a great way to put Disney into perspective. Disney is a corporation that everyone knows about, and we learn from a young age that it is a magical land where dreams and fantasies come true. However, what we don't realize is how we subliminally learn messages that as a kid we don't realize we're learning. One other example they used in the documentary was how Ariel was willing to give up her beautiful voice to be with man, making women seem like they will do anything for men. Disney should definitely be censored because while they might not be trying to be outwardly malicious, the messages they create in peoples minds lead to stereotypes and untrue messages.
