Corey Brooks Houseguest
Corey Brooks is the lastest Big Brother houseguest to be connected to homophobic comments. In the past, houseguest Caleb Reynolds, Clay Honeycutt and others have had their social media accounts ‘searched’ by Big Brother fans. Corey Brooks repeately uses the “F” word in a derogatory way multiple times. He even refers to a person as a “F” word and talks about it regardig a potential relationship. But the most offensive way he used it was to describe a movie. It looks like he watched The Notebook and he connects crying over the movie to being gay.

I pesonally believe that CBS chooses to ignore these comments because they are relatively easy to find. Unless the casting director Robyn Kass decides not to research the houseguest on purpose. Going

    In “’Guys Are Just Homophobic,’" C. J. Pascoe sums up fag discourse with the lines “Through making homophobic jokes, calling other boys gay and imitating effeminate men boys attempt to assure themselves and others of their masculinity” and “ Jeremy emphasized that this insult literally reduced a boy to nothing, ‘To call someone gay or fag is like the lowest thing you can call someone.

We learn about hegemonic masculinity from R. W. Connell’s “The Social Organization of Masculinity.”…

    “Act yourself” they say, “Do it again” they say, “Do it like this and say it like this” they say, “Act natural” they say. The producers have a storyline in mind and that’s how it is edited. If they change their mind, they can and will redo the audio after the fact to make it fit their goals, even if that is weeks after the fact.” Reality TV is an entertaining craze and will continue to become more fake over time. It’s the ratings that the producers are after, and more excitement means more viewers. The excitement will come at any cost, especially the lack of…

    Reality television has become one of the most common forms of entertainment in the American household since the early 2000’s. From “The Bachelor” to “Jersey Shore”, no plot seems too racy or inappropriate for audiences of all ages. Recently, however, TLC aired their newest reality TV show, “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo” that is thought to be one of the most controversial reality TV series of all time. The show encompasses the lives of a small-town, southern Georgian family who live a frugal lifestyle, and demonstrate the self proclaimed stereotype of rednecks. Fascinatingly, the series captures the quirky attitude of seven-year-old Alana Thompson, and her mother, June Shannon. Although the series has produced high ratings in its first season, (tying the ratings for the Democratic National Convention in the 18-49 demographic) critics cannot help but comment on the obscurity of this new reality TV show.…

    Jack Brooks once stated that “Every disaster is an opportunity,” and he was absolutely correct. Brooks’ statement especially holds true to politicians. Politicians are in a constant struggle to gain the support of the citizens, and to be successful they need take advantage of every presented opportunity to get seen and heard by the public. Disasters stimulate fear and excitement in the public, therefore the public pays a lot of attention to them (Popkin, 25). In turn politicians are attentive to disasters, because of their ability to benefit some politicians and/or harm others, as accredited by Steven Merksamer when he said; “My biggest fear always was of not being prepared for a major disaster […] How they are handled can make or break…

    Cinematic brilliance can be defined in many ways. Some filmmakers, like Hitchcock or Kubrick, are obsessive planners who create meticulous blueprints in their minds. Others prefer more organic methods -- cutting loose with the camera in an attempt to catch lightning in a bottle, whether it be an actor's spontaneous gesture, a sudden reflection of the light, or the inexplicable poetry of a single moment in time.…
