On www.slideshare.net the meaning of Media Representation is as follows, "representation refers to the construction in any aspects of 'reality' such as people, objects, places, events, cultural identities and other abstract concepts."
This means how the Media represents character,age and gender. Having and understanding of representation means knowing the difference between watching something on TV and in real life as media products re-present the world to us by showing a version of reality, not reality its self. Representation in media studies means thinking about the presentation of a group or individual to the audience.
Media Representation is often stereotypical and biased as it is coming from the opinion of an individual or minority, therefore it is an idea and opinion presented in their way to convince the audience that they are correct.
