Compose a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following:
Explain how Cognitive Dissonance Theory can be applied to your experience with the mass media image you identified for the Collaboration Activity 1 that appears to portray someone in a contradictory way from what is typically portrayed in the mass media.
Include information about the relationship between the mass media image, how the individual is typically portrayed in the mass media, and the concept that mass media is a fabrication and an exaggeration.
Explain the mass media image’s relationship with the concept that mass media is a representation of how the mass media creators see themselves and the world. Also, include information about how the media affects how others view people and the world around them.
Support your reasoning with references from at least two of the Readings and additional resources you located, using proper APA citation.
In the last page or two of your paper:
Describe the alternative mass media image you created that communicates a message that would allow that person depicted in the image to empower him or herself and his or her community to represent themselves to the world.
Identify and provide specific examples of the type of mass media, the techniques, and media effect theories you applied.
Justify your reasoning for your choice of mass media, techniques, and media effect theories, clearly citing at least two sources to support your assertions and observations using APA citation.
