Blog:7 Cultivation Theory

In this blog I am going to give my opinion on the cultivation theory. I agree with this theory especially with having personal experience with this theory. My friend watched a lot of TV shows and movies on how to make money, and in the movie/Tv shows they made money on selling drugs and buying cars from auctions and selling them. After watching these shows and movies my friend started to believe he was one of those characters and started to act an behave like them. Also I seen my girlfriend who was addicted to watching crime investigation tv shows and movies start to turn all of my doings into something bad like I was hiding things from her. Most people are easily influenced by anything on the screen, starting at very young ages too. You can easily spot young children dressed up as their favorite characters from Disney and even superheroes. But not only children it also targets men and women of all ages, I've witnessed women in certain social groups based of the movie Mean Girls where they picked out their social group friends to meet requirements within the group to be just like those girls. When it all falls down TV can affect the way you live your lifestyle and play a role on how you adapt to others in your surroundings.
