I can agree that magazines are exploiting celebrities and
these “wannabe” celebrities. Magazines over exaggerate and give people false
hope of something they will never be, such as a perfect, strong, well-toned
body, AKA “the Adonis effect”. Magazines will also Photoshop images of woman to
look thinner or, in the black community thicker or curvier. These men and women
are being portrayed as sex symbols. And what I can understand is why people can’t
love and accept the body that they’re in. it seems like everyone wants this “perfect
body” but what people don’t understand is this shxt will never happen. Even
children and teens are being exploited, with the internet being so live today
and the use of social media younger individuals can become famous in 30 seconds
just by uploading a video on vine, ig, or YouTube. Its opening these kids up to
criticism at a young age and I personally think they’re not ready for the big
spot light. Magazines will pump your head up and make you believe something that’s
not true just so it can draw you in and make you open or even buy the magazine.
Magazines will often use words in big bold print to make it stand out and
exaggerate a certain event and make it seem like it’s a big freaking deal and
make every story, every situation, and every celebrity seem 10x more intense
that what it really is. In conclusion, magazines will do anything to make you
as the consumer, pick and buy the magazine. There’s a magazine out there for
everyone that can in some way draw you in. money is the factor in all of this,
so magazines will say whatever they have to say just to get them flying off the
racks and putting money into their pockets.

Exactly all magazines want are views and are willing to do anything to get them if that means making up rumors or photo shopping a persons body and putting it on the front page.
ReplyDeleteMaybe, just maybe, people are begining to see through their lies as those magazines are actually making less and less these days.
