S2 EP7: Why Care About [Semiotic] Media Representation?

Salutations Listener. Sorry I kept saying 'As such' and apologises to Kay and Skittles for calling you Key and Skittle. Everyone else whos name I got wrong, you get a smaller sorry. So this week we move into the final mini-series of the season, opening a dialogue around representation and why people even give a hoot about it. But because media representations aren't always what they seem, this episode focuses on 'semiotics' and how semiotic analysis helps to uncover the who, what and why people care about representations in media texts and how some readings land on some startling conclusions.
