Re-presentation & Mediation

This week, we learnt about a key concept; Representation which is "the way people, places and events are re-presented to us in the media. They do this through the Process of 'Mediation'. This is when someone has made a decision to choose a specific picture or use of words, which they then show to they're specified audience allowing the audience to connotatively create they're own views on what they see

e.g 

This example headline page, could create views of racism, and the notorious 'Pun' "Slumdog" that the news of the world have used to portray their collected news.
