I thought it was really interesting when Fiske talked about how different time periods in history have had different ideals of the perfect place to raise a child. Today, people will probably argue that the suburbs are the most ideal place to raise children, but I wonder how that will change in the future? Will big cities ever be ideal? He also said the most powerful people at that time in history set this ideal, aren't most of those people in big cities like NYC, Chicago, and LA?
The Notting Hill article by Fiske made me think of how magazines still try and put thoughts into our heads from their photographs. Magazines always have photo-shopped people made to look perfect. It is just interesting that any image we see on a magazine or TV, most likely, is altered in some way.
