Media ethnicity case studies

Ethnicity is portrayed differently throughout the media, most ethnicity groups are shown badly which retaliates a bad reaction of the audience which is what the papers want. In newspaper articles the minority of ethnicity groups are portrayed as the majority, so when you read an article on terrorism etc the papers make it sound like its the whole religion that is the same. In this article the population of Syria are shown as all being terrorists; this is because the headlines describe them as 'crowds flock' which makes it sound like the whole population turned up to this sick event however there may have only been a handful of people as it is in a tiny room. The image shows young and old generations viewing the videos which can make us, the public, think that they enjoy the terrorism and killings because they are educating the younger generation on it all. They are described as 'Bloodthirsty' which can connote vampires, the are represented to go after innocent humans and enjoy all the war and fighting. However the Daily Mail haven't actually said how many people turned up to this event, they just described it as the whole of Syria. The mise-en-scene shows the typical clothing they are wearing which includes the head dresses which can cause a mis-representation of the ethnicity group.

The most popular video that was shown on a loop is the killing of Jordanian pilot Mu'ath al-Kassabeh who was burnt alive by ISIS earlier this year, the view the public gets from this is that they kill innocent people for no reason and the population of Syria believe in it, however there is no articles on the population disagreeing with ISIS because it won't create a reaction the newspapers want. The image underneath shows a few people at the 'cinema' watching the movies and there eyes are fixed onto the screens like they are actually interested and finding it entertaining. You can also see a young boy sat next to his mum watching the video which makes us question if all this fighting will end because they are educating the younger generation on what is happening now so they think its 'normal'. The people within the article are portrayed as dangerous and the article is supposed to make us all feel threatened as they don't point out this is the view of everyone who lives in Syria.
