These three articles caught my attention and were fun to read. The first article about the cartoons and how it’s subconsciously putting images into children’s heads I think is very true. I mean think about it, SPONGE BOB!? Hello! Wake up! It’s not normal for a BOY sponge and a BOY starfish to hold each others hands all the time. I do believe it’s sending messages to kids having them think to themselves that the next time they see their best friends its okay to run down the street holding each others hands. I’m not saying its a bad thing to be gay, I’m just saying that normally the child wouldn’t be thinking that. The second article about reality T.V. kind of caught me off guard. There are two different kinds of reality tv, you have shows like the real world (which isn’t real at all) and the Hills, and then you have shows like American Idol or Dancing with the Stars. I guess you can classify these shows into two categories. the first category could be unreality tv shows and the second one could be actual reality tv shows. Shows like The Real World and The Hills are a fallacy to the word REAL. Nothing is real about partying every night or getting anything you want. On the other shows like American Idol and Dancing with the Stars you watch the contestants compete for what they want and in REALITY you have to do that same exact thing. If you want something, you need to peruse yourself in doing so. The last article about art and how it can be perceived in many ways i don’t agree with it at all. art CAN be looked at through alot of things but not EVERYTHING. what’s so artistic about a paper bag??
