Write a response to Stuart Hall’s essay “The television Discourse: Encoding and Decoding” and Linda Steiner’s (1988) essay “ Oppositional Decoding as an Act of Resistance.” You should also refer to the three short videos assigned for this week. Pay particular attention to each author’s discussion of various forms of decoding.
As always, the paper should reflect a critical reading of the texts and your reaction. Think of the paper as having two parts:
1) Make sure to identify the key arguments/relevant concepts in the videos and the readings. Summarize what the authors meant, or at least what you think the authors meant, and try to see the world with that theoretical lense.
2) Critique the theory from an outside perspective, finding its strengths but also its flaws.
