  1. Is it real, is it fake? AzkaaChaudhry & Nikki Lau Writing 10, Section 15 Professor Patel

  2. Culture: Reality Television • Celeb-reality: shows that follow the lives of celebrities or for the purpose of creating celebrities due to their lavish lifestyles. • E.g. The Real Housewives franchise • The women are not typically well known celebrities but gain “fame” post-production of the series

  3. Problem • Not relatable • Sets unrealistic expectations for viewers • False advertising • Corrupts moral values

  4. History

  5. Research • During the 1980’s studies showed that viewers were hardly influenced at all by television • In the 1990’s, Dr. Mark Harmon proved that with the change in programming also came a change in the affect it had on audiences

  6. Research • With the knowledge that television does in fact influence viewer behavior, Rebecca Glover and a few colleagues performed a survey focusing on children and adolescents • Results: younger viewers perceive morals differently than adults • Because TV is so ubiquitous in the 21st century it has the power to shape children's idea of what right and wrong are

  7. Solution • The Real Housewives franchise along with other celeb-reality shows should be mandated an additional behind the scenes episode showing all items and aspects of the show that were either given to the cast for free or constructed as part of production. • In addition, every episode should begin with a disclaimer stating that some features are simulated or added for the purposes of the show.

  8. CULTURAL PROBLEM

  9. History • Around since 800 B.C • 4,000 years ago • Over past 10 years, amount of teens getting plastic surgery has tripled. • In 2009, more than 209,000 plastic surgeries for teens (age 13-19).

  10. Research • John Maltby study • Teens brains are still growing, not fully mature yet. • If teens do not accept the way they look, they might not be able to mature properly. • Side effects

  11. Research

  12. Solution • A person must be 18 years or older in order to get a plastic surgery purely for cosmetic reasons. • Minors cannot get plastic surgeries for nonmedical purposes done even with parental consent. • Class to teach everyone about Dangers.

  13. Question • Should the age stay at 18 since it is the legal age or should it be increased more, for example 21?
