How is institutional bias influencing the representations of certain groups and the Miscarriage of Justice?
Angle
What Impact does the influence have on the justice system, people with disabilities and the documentary genre?
Should there be more regulation on sites such as Netflix? (but not as much as the BBC)
Hypothesis
Making a Murderer is a perfect example showing that institutional bias is still a complex and major problem (or factor) in the contemporary media landscape.
Linked production piece
A Short film
There are two protagonist's one committed a crime and didn't serve, the other didn't commit a crime and served. The person who went to prison will have scenes that directly contrast and will be in black and white.
MIGRAIN
o Institutions - Netflix - Bias - Law Enforcement
o Genre - Documentary - Changes to it over the years.
o Representation of Law enforcement - Negative -
People with disabilities - Vulnerable, law breakers?
Working Class - Gold diggers? e.t.c
o Audience - Impact - Passive vs Active - Influence
Creation of Dominant Ideologies
SHEP
Apply the Wider Contexts (Social, Historical, Economic, Political) to your text/topic, including at least three bullet points on each one.
