Friday post

Interpretation is how one views an event, object, character, and people's actions or how they percieve the meaning of something. Representation is how an event, obeject, ect. really is or what it means in words or focuses on the particulars/details. Gossip magazines on celebrities is an example of interpretation and the nightly news is an example of representation.

I totally agree about the gossip magazines and how they are interpretation since most times they put horrible spins on events giving it a completely new meaning and having their readers interpret the event how they want it to be viewed.
