Since we are doing tv now, that's what I'm going to write about. I was watching prime time tv and realized that most of the shows were targeted at males. All the cop shows and some of the doctors shows that seem to be the bulk of the shows are all targeted to men. I watched House, The Mentalist, and Castle and all the shows have a strong male character as the lead and women are only ever in supporting roles. I don't know where I was going with that, I don't like this no direction thing. To keep this going, I am going to switch directions and say that I think people need to be more media literate. I think that the class we are taking now should be put into junior high because that is when you are the most vulerable from the media, by the time you get to high school you should know what is going on around you and what is real and what isn't.
