I choose to relate the cultivation theory to an medium such as a t.v. show. The cultivatation theory assumes that media systems like conventional broadcasts tv deliver a consistent message to a mass audience. It argues that mass media exposure cultivates a view of the world that is consistent with mediated "reality". The real world experiences combine with the televison worldview over time when real life experiences confimrs the emdia the effects intesnsifies through a process of resonance.

I feel like shows like Rehab with Dr. Drew, and the show house, it gives people a chance to realy relate and think okay if they can get threw this than so can I. Like in Celebrity rehab since they are marked as "celebrities" ( even though they aren't A listed celebriteis, they are still well known) to see people go threw their problems and hear them talk about it and their struggles i think it gives people/ viewers a way to relate. Become more understanding and almost feel for them and experience their pain and emotions as if it was theirs as well.

The show house is like having every disease out their shown, wich is informative. The characters have each a specific role and is very relatable. Just the other day my mother was teling me how she can relate to the main character, and that she sees alot of her self in him..... myy oh myy what has the media done, just exactly what the show watned to do.
