Inhaltsangabe oder Einleitung

((First year Sociology course, APA))

...Specifically, this paper will focus on three key ideas. First, it will focus on the premise of media portrayal of class images. What are the implications of media images defining social norms? Who controls the media? Second, what impact do fast-food chains have on the remuneration of their employees and other job sectors? Fast-food chains are competing with one another, but how do they focus on the bottom line? Third, what are the ramifications of uniformity and are they already taking place?

Anmerkungen
This paper has explored an often overlooked notion of the influence of major corporations on society. Through the use of media portrayal companies have given society an idea of what it should be trying to attain. By means of remuneration, companies have exploited their workers by not paying overtime wages and in some cases have encouraged illegal activity in attempts to get ahead. This has lead to a larger gap between classes. Finally, through society’s uniformity of these practices, we ultimately see that we are, in part, guilty of our own oppression.
