Stuart Hall said that representation is the production of meaning through language ( A spoken language or a visible language).
He suggested that reality is mediated through language.
This means that the actual truth is filtered through the perspective of the person making the media.
They choose what to show us, so they can manipulate the 'facts' based on social/personal/political agendas.
The media therefore do not present the pure truth- they present a 'mediated' version of the truth.
For example: Smoking, Sky Sports, Politics
