In this news article, Alexandra Marks believes certain types of media presentations (music videos and motion pictures) shows evidence that suggests violence, especially against women, is extremely relevant in media. It relates real life scenarios, like columbine, to movies that came out before and directly after the fatal shooting. Children and Teenagers today are able to watch and play violent video games regardless of their rating. However, it is not just the video games that make a violent culture-- it's how the mass media objectifies certain groups of people (specifically to this article-women).
