After having studied pop culture this semester, I realized that there are so many things need to learn about culture. Although pop culture is around me, I have never tried to understand it before.
We are surrounded with many technological and information advancements in this age, popularity changes much faster than before. People can get information from everywhere, social networks, televisions, newspapers. People are not worrying about where to get information, but sometimes they worries about how they can get rid of overloaded information. However, people are in pop culture, but they have never tried to analyze it.
Thinking about the meanings behind pop culture is an interesting thing to study.Pop culture is something that we have to confront everyday and everywhere， so it covers a lot of areas. Financial crisis can impact the thesis of pop culture. Mass shooting may have something to do with social medias. How about food? Is it related with pop culture? More female managers or male managers in you workplace? Are people addicted to facebook or twitter? Have people ever thought that those things have relations with pop culture? People are annoyed by so much information, but they can actually find rules in there.
Studying soap operas, reality shows, or social networks are not a waste of time at all. All the people can find something useful in pop culture. A lot of companies are more and more putting emphasis on social networks to promote their product, and some of them get a big success because they have studied pop culture.
