Representation for an adiance (research)

My objective was to understand how a Media text can create representations for an audience. My other objective was to understand how gender maybe represented by a media text.

What is representation?
A representation is the way that media represents individuals, groups events and issues. Also media institutions use stereotypes because the audience will quickly understand  them. Also stereotypes are repeated so often that we assume they're true.

Archetype- the ultimate stereotype
Countrype- the opposite of stereotypes and archetype.  representation that challenges tradition.
