"Jersey Shore"
The show "Jersey Shore" has created a spark within our society. Weather people agree with the language, habits and overall attitudes of the people being televised on the MTV series, it certainly has jump started the boardwalks revenue. If we were to look at this from a political economy approach, we can see that since the show has aired profits all over the Seaside area have been boosted. This is because people go to Seaside when they see it on TV. This happened because Seaside Heights was seen on TV which made people think that if it is seen on TV then it must be a great place to visit. But, if we were to look at this issue from a cultural studies approach we could say that more people now visit Seaside Heights because they want to be like the people on the TV show. If the party people want to party then they now know where to go. If the beach bums need a new place to apply sunblock then they have a new destination.
