5) Representation: A Definition
By definition all media texts are re-representation if reality. Meaning they are intentionally created by their producers. They choose story lines that closely link to reality and that are understandable by the audience.
Representation is a two way process, producers position a text somewhere in relation to reality and audiences assess a text on its relationship to reality.
