Ill Manors: TEDx lecture

Ill Manors: TEDx lecture 




What are Plan B's beliefs/politics? What are his values/ideologies? 
he believes a lot in children coming from 'rough' backgrounds needing a positive role model because they wouldn't have been exposed to that. he strongly has a passion for helping young 'chavs' in similar situations to himself. he understands where young chavs come from and acknowledges that "ignorant people settle things by using violence because they aren't educated enough to do it another way" he also has strong views about the London riots and argues that they happened due to children not feeling part of society. he wanted to change the things he saw in real life and in newspapers that he didn't agree with, he wants to be an almost father figure to children.

 Who is the target audience of the TEDx lecture? Demographics? Psychographics? How do you know? How does this compare to the audience for his music/films? Is there more than one audience for this talk?
TEDx lectures are usually targeted to middle class well educated people who are interested in the topic being talked about. plan bs usual target audience is mostly opposite as they are usually lower class, with no higher education or hardly any. i think there could be more than one audience for this talk and that is the people who watch it online and that will click on it because it is plan b. 

 What does Plan B say about the media? Explain how this can be linked to Cohen's media theory of moral panics? Read this summary of moral panics and the definition from Wikipedia and use them in your answer
plan b talks about the word 'chav'' in media and explains how it used to mean something completely innocent however media coverage and newspapers began to use the word to demonise a lower class. this label of a deviant group allows lower class 'chavs' to fit into this 'folk devil' that Stanley Cohen created when he was researching the mods and rockers.
