This isn’t media literacy necessarily. That is the show using symbolism within cultural context. That isn’t a failing of media literacy, that is just a different cultural understanding of something. Symbolism is often a shorthand to convey meaning, but that meaning is derived from the cultural context. Americans also have our own “symbolic shorthand”, as all places do.

not having cultral context is different than not having media literacy skills. i think we’re using media literacy too loosely now
