<br/><br/>Analysis of the media's relationship with society and how the media represents minority groups to society.  Establishing that the media consistently takes symbols and codes from a minority group's culture and uses these codes to represent the group.  These findings are then applied to the LGBTQI community to reveal how the community has been represented by the media.  From examining past and present advertising campaigns by Absoult Vodka and Coca Cola we can establish that society's perception of the LGBTQI community has changed. Therefore, the media's representation has also changed from a stereotypical to an accurate representation of LGBTQI culture. [Abstract]
