Killing Them Softly:how women are viewed today in media
Today we view women in media more different then we have before ever. Back in the begining women were represented in media as house wives and subservient. As we have progressed, there are still images of the women in the media in that style but they are now more in models. The image of women are changed to make them look better, thinner, or more attractive. Killing them softly showed the images behind this and how these images are put out today. In the video, we saw how a image was changed from a normal person to a completely changed model. This is how we are viewing women in todays media. we are putting a false image into peoples heads todays that we are trying get girls to look like this and have these girls do this. These false images are pushing these girls to put themselves into unhealthy positions and causing bad things in their bodies.
