Big Brother Reality T.V. Show
Big Brother is supposed to be a reality t.v. show, however, Big Brother has changed from innocent series 1 to obsene violence in series 5. Big Brother is a house filled with 12 people who do several challenges and experience difficult situations. This is a perfectly normal reality show until series 5 when the house is one third smaller, with even more cameras microphones and contestents who are even more out of the ordinary.After spending many weeks in the house, surviving many evictions a winner who has managed to dodge the public votes gets a sum of £70,000.
Series 5 is said to be called 'Big Brother gets evil' due to the continuous suprises it displays for the

This interested may viewers and Big Brother was booming, but did Big Brother go to far? Series 5 was claimed to be a disgrace to Great Britain. It contained more than many hoped for and was shameful to our nation.
To create a situation Big Brother had a mock eviction 'Legal secutary Emma' and 'Wannabe glamour model Michelle' were evicted, Big Brother's other contestants believed this was for real, but when the girls left, instead of being re-united with familes they were put into a bedsit in the studio. The bedsit was of small size, consisting of a few pieces of furniture and a large television screen and they were not allowed to leave. Michelle Bass and Emma Greenwood were able to hear and view everything which was happening in the house. Previous to this Michelle was having a rather serious relationship with Big Brother contestant Stuart whilst Emma was already at war with 'Vile Victor Ebuwa'. In the bedsit they heard their supposed friends slag them off calling them abusive language and being disrespectful. This would have surely

It contains a whole paragraph on why Big Brother was so mean. Everything the paper says is always negative to the reality show,'after deliberate' which suggests that Big Brother planned it. This automatically tells us as the reader that they are against BB. Compare this to a tabloid paper.
The Sun and The News of the World both did a article on the same issue, yet they had completely different opinions. 'They were able to view all the footage from Big Brother' this is implying that it wasn't the producers fault and they are co-operating and are perfectly innocent. It finds all the good aspects and defends BB. This is also the opposite to the Daily Mail and I wouldn't as a viewer have expected that. The Sun in my opinion would have been a gossipy paper however has BB made the one exception? Ther is no bad comments about Big Brother and it justifies itself. In the EDP, which is a regional paper, it again disagrees the innocence of BB. It compares the reality show with the real world and trys to make the reader think about the incident in a more realistic way. So actually did Big Brother give

The word sitcom is short for Situation Comedy. A good sitcom story idea places the star (or supporting character) into a situation in need of a resolution, which will cause the character to respond in unexpected, exaggerated, and hugely sidesplitting ways (Rannow, pg. 13). A comedy now days are different from how they were in the 1960's and 1970's though. Today directors use sexual content and foul language to make people laugh and do not usually have a purpose or point to get across to the audience with each show. In earlier comedy, such as The Brady Bunch, Director Jack Arnold tried have a lesson learned in each episode while still maintaining a sense of humor, minus the foul language and sexual content. Although the show is not extremely funny to most people it is still a classic show that deserves to be remembered.
…There was no question of celebration in the minds of the fans who invaded from the West end of the ground. They had violence in mind and no sooner was it offered than it was returned with enthusiasm. The brutal and disgusting scenes which followed as bottles flew and drunken supporters charged and counter-charged from one end of the field to that other, brought disgrace upon the two clubs concerned, upon Scottish football generally, and were an affront to Scotland as a nation (Murray 196).
Effectiveness and Biases: I believe the exhibition team did an excellent job of conveying their intended message although I am not in total agreement with it. Again, this message is to apologize for the Americans who acted out of hysteria in imprisoning a multitude of fellow citizens who were completely innocent.
On August 9th of 2001 America suffered from a great tragedy that will never be forgotten. Four commercial jets were hijacked and two were then crashed into the twin towers. The other two were steered off course but still one managed to hit the pentagon. These suicide attacks devastated the nation into grief from all of the innocent lives that were taken away, but can this truly be a terrorist attack? With recently reading the book 1984, I’ve wondered if this event was an accident or was it staged? In the book a totalitarian government runs and controls all of the people of Oceania. It demonstrates the capability of the human species to dominate one another and to some cases even brainwashing each other. Even though this book was written before the actual year of 1984 this demonstrates the fear that people from our past had, due to all of our misbehavior. The brain is capable of many things and as history has shown before with Hitler(a dictator) and so many other leaders, we will stop at nothing to get our hands on the power of full control and dominance whether it’s by destroying evidence and creating our lies to save ourselves from trouble or by making the world believe the lies of the media and concealing the truth. Can 9/11 be an example of this?
The MTV series 16 And Pregnant and its follow up series titled Teen Mom is a documentary like series that first aired in 2009 on June 11 and since then has had many seasons and sequels to follow it. Each episode in the series focuses on several young girls for 5-7 moths while they have to deal with the struggle of teenage pregnancy and “life after labor”. The initial idea or the show was to promote teen pregnancy prevention but, with many of the girls behaving scandalously and recklessly during the series, the show has become one of the most controversial on MTV.

“This is the true story, of seven strangers, picked to live in a house, and have their lives taped, to find out what happens when people stop being polite, and start getting real”(MTV). This marks the beginning of MTV’s reality show, The Real World. The show takes 7 strangers, puts them in a trendy luxurious home, taping them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for about 4 months. The cameras capture petty arguments, late night hook ups, and pure laziness. How could this not be real? There are not many people that can live in an expensive home while laying around all day, and partying all night with little work involved. The Real World is a display of 18-24 year olds, typecasted to have their most extreme stereotypical qualities blown out of proportion for the world to see.
Blood cannot be staged even when family values are. In Reality-TV family values, you can be the worst parent in the world but as long as you put family above all else. You can make yourself a martyr for your families happiness. Showing the world they too can have true happiness beyond all the money and recognition just by loving their family. The most important thing in life is family as long as it is like mine. The family unit and values must be put above everything else in life.

Being that reality television plagues society and that I despise most of these shows, I hope to teach my friend not to like “Keeping up with the Kardashians”. I hope to accomplish this task through a type of conditioning, or learning, that I can apply to the situation in order to discourage the mental processes involved in watching “Keeping up with the Kardashians”. Ideally, through Ivan Paplov’s described conditioning methods, I can save my friend from the mistake of enjoying the television show.
Cynthia M. Frisby, in her article "Getting Real with Reality TV", analyze reasons why audiences are attracted to reality television programs. According to Frisby, reality television shows have captivate audiences because, apparently people enjoy watching other people 's lives, and they can compare themselves and lives with others. Different people in society see reality tv in different ways: some see it as something to lift it, in either way reality affect society both positively and negatively.
The topic I have chosen for research paper is HOOLIGANISM in football. Although football hooliganism only became recognized by government and the media as a serious problem in the 1960s, hooligan behavior at football has a long history. Between the wars, football generally became more ‘respectable’ and crowd problems diminished but did not disappear. As far as most football fans at top matches are concerned, hooliganism no longer seems to be a terribly serious problem. In 2000, 19% of all FA Premier League fans reported they had witnessed hooliganism or missile throwing at matches in the 1999/2000 season. When asked which are the serious problems facing the game today FA Premier League fans pointed to ticket prices, ‘big business’ and kick-off times. Only 28% highlighted hooliganism. Also, in 2001 only 7% of all FA Premier League club supporters thought hooliganism was actually increasing as a problem at football. In the Football League, hooliganism seems to be a problem around a relatively small number of clubs and specific matches. However, the NCIS annual list of football incidents seems more likely these days to involve rivals from noted Football League clubs than supporters of the larger FA Premier League outfits.
