Example of stereotypical and the differences between it



Can you think of an example of a stereotypical image in media that has caused harm? What about an example where no harm has been caused? What’s the difference between these two examples?
 

An example of a stereotypical image in media that has caused harm that is in the current media view wealth is a barrier for poor families to continue their studies. In addition, the lack of money is also a mouthpiece that the less fortunate will not succeed in the future than those who are more than capable of entering any university within the country or abroad. The financially capable groups are viewed by the media as opposed to the opposite. Even though the less fortunate had been offered to continue their studies to the next level, they had to reject the offer because of the finances. For the well-versed groups will always be highly regarded by the media and even the society. As the overweight media cause those who cannot afford to be isolated and ignored to continue their studies.

An example where no harm has been caused education. In the present year, there is no difference for anyone who wishes to pursue higher education as many government universities have been established. This is where the government of this kingdom lightens the burden of the less fortunate. For those who are capable can also continue their studies at this government university. In addition, there are many loans for those who wish to pursue their studies at home or abroad, for example PTPTN, MARA, and so on. So, the whole media plays an important role in spreading this information.

The difference between these two examples is to involve deep feelings, burdens, and thoughts in resolving a future problem. Both of which involve the future and are the things that need to be emphasized. Both of these can be prevented if the media is not biased and uses the media as good as possible to release important information to the public. For example, through tv, radio, advertising to make it easier for the public to know it.
