Welcome!

This is our blog for the media literacy project we are creating.  We chose to analyze MTV reality TV shows, particularly Teen Mom, Pimp my Ride, I Used to be Fat, My Super Sweet 16, The Real World, Pranked, Jersey Shore, and The Buried Life.  The following is our blog analyzing these shows, and their influence on middle school students.  We discussed with each other, our peers, and young adults how these reality shows might affect this age group, and what messages MTV seems to be sending by airing them.  Each blog entry discusses a different reality TV show, and what messages it may send to young adults.  The general thoughts section is a summary of all of our thoughts, and the consensus we came to about MTV reality TV shows.  Please read the comments as well as the posts, as we commented on the shows that others watched as well.
Thank you, and enjoy!
