Jersey Shore is a hit reality television show on MTV. It is about 8 young Italian Americans by the names of Nicole (Snooki), Jenni (JWOWW), Sammi, Deena, Pauly, Ronni, Vinny & Mike whom live in a house together over the course of each summer. The show includes drama, partying, drinking, sexual content, minimum work and of course more drama. Through those components it has gotten so much publicity that it has become one of the most popular reality shows out there. I watch Jersey Shore purely for the entertainment the cast portrays through their stupidity. This relates to the key concept the media construct reality because since it is a "reality" show it appears that partying, the drama and drinking to get drunk EVERY day is normal when it really should be something you do once in a while after a long week of work and/or school. The show is giving off the wrong message to teenaers and young people (the majority of the population who watch it) therefore making them think that what they do is acceptable.
