How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Stereotypes play a key role in how my magazine will represent particular social groups. For example; usually emos and goths read about artists and bands that I have featured in my magazine but due to recent changes in society indie lovers may enjoy my magazine also.
This therefore means that more people will enjoy my magazine now than there would've been twenty years ago. This is an example of how the media is constantly changing due to changes in society and how people have changed the way in which their stereotypes relate to their music/media choices and decisions.
I would not like to limit my magazine to a specific social group/stereotype because I think that whilst the media is constantly changing, people are also changing and generally people have a more eclectic taste in music, than just sticking to one genre constantly. I feel that this would have an impact on my magazine because anyone could be the audience and enjoy my product. I also feel that even those who are not in the specific target audience age group could enjoy my product due to this shift in music taste, which widens my audience even further.
