How youths are portrayed through
   different media platforms
Blue



The media can be a
powerful tool in reinforcing                            society may come to view it as a reality
stereotypes                                              rather than a chosen representation.




                                          Negative stereotypes not only affect how adults
 It affects the way society views them,   see teenagers, they influence how teenagers see
 and change society's expectations of     themselves.
 them with enough exposure to a           The feeling that the rest of the world doesn't
 stereotype on youths.                    respect or understand you does little to encourage
                                          a positive sense of self-worth.

                      RESEARCH: ARTICLE LINK

   I have found an article that relates really well with the topic we considering to take
   forward…




                                                         “Survey, commissioned by Young People Now
                                                         magazine, suggests third of press articles about
                                                         young people were about crime and 71% saw
                                                         young people negatively”




                                                         Youth campaigners, backed by children's
                                                         minister Margaret Hodge, say the young are
                                                         being unfairly targeted and should not be
                                                         linked automatically with anti-social
                                                         behaviour.
Blue
                         PUBLICS OPINIONS
   We decided to let some people aged 25+ to fill out a questionnaire (their view about
   Youth and their representation) and spoke through some of there explanations
   Here is what they said:

  “majority of the time Issues to do with youth on the news has always been a
   negative, which obvisley gives people a bad impression on them, a negative
   one”

  “the crime on the news, youth are always involved somewhere in that issue,
   which makes some youths appear to be violent”

   “Films where young people are associating themselves
   with drugs, knifes, etc”
   They are generalising all youths by always doing this
   which gives all youths a Different outlook.

   The representation of youths is of only a minority in
   Britain, there are many youths that are well educated
   and behaved ie.youths going to university and helping
   out the community”
Blue
Statistics
The media should cover more positive stories about
young people?



                                                      47% of adults believe that
                                                     teenagers are portrayed in
                                                     the media as drug abusers,
                                                     alcoholics or as
                                                     participating in anti-social
                                                     behaviour, while only 7%
                                                     of the people surveyed
                                                     believed that they are
                                                     portrayed in a positive
                                                     way.
