Age representation homework..

Age Representation Homework..


This woman challenges the stereotype for old people, she's at the age of 83 and does sports people half her age wouldn't even attempt to do. This example is a positive representation of older people in the media because this woman doesn't follow the stereotypes normally associated with older people, instead she skydives, go karts and parasails. Old people in the media are normally stereotyped as being slow, boring, grumpy and weak however Super Grandma, Brenda challenges this stereotype and gives older people a more positive representation in the media.
