Fiske

John Fiske thinks that we make sense of the world not through our own experiences but through interpretations of them through the media. Basically we recognise things due to the media's (television and films) adaptation of them!
This footage seems appropriate to what he says.
For instance when watching them you feel as though 'its like watching something from movie'... why do we think this, because strange and out of the ordinary things happen on the television everyday which make them seem normal. Also thinking about a murder, how many people get murdered on a t.v program or a film being watched every day in comparison to how many people actually get murdered?
