Comparing Media Framing to a Classic Satirical Cartoon
This image juxtaposes a modern fashion advertisement featuring a model holding a pair of Converse sneakers with a classic political cartoon. The cartoon depicts a television camera capturing a misleading angle of a scene to create a false narrative, while the advertisement is shown in both its original context and a cropped version. The comparison highlights the concept of selective framing, suggesting that media outlets can manipulate public perception by focusing on specific details while omitting the broader picture, effectively mirroring the satirical commentary on media bias presented in the illustration.
I don’t even know how people are seeing the KKK image in the first place that’s the first one I saw, the cropped one, and people complaining and I’m like what’s even the problem? People will see racism anywhere
This cover got pulled off the shelves in 1980. This was the beginning of political correctness.
When demand for racism exceeds the supply
the media is the enemy of the people
Outrage has to be a psyop to generate views. It HAS to be. There is no way you will convince me it is not.
so we're all wearing converse now?
Yep. The left creating problems where there are none. Typical.
why does anyone take leftists seriously at all anymore
If converse said. It's our ad. We're not taking it down. We're not apologizing. I would've bought 10 pairs knowing it pissed off so many people.
For people not getting it. I think she's some Korean kpop potato that did an ad for sketchers. Left is the normal picture, right is the zoomed in version that certain people are crying about. The light triangle looks like kkk pointed hat and the shoes look like a person hanging.
