Between the subjects of the music, tv shows, and films I like and the opinions of the artists that I follow I have learned a lot from my taste in the entertainment industry. One of the earliest entertainment items that shaped who I was was the book and movie The Perks of Being a Wallflower it taught me that everyone has deeper issues and that treating someone kindly can make a world of a difference for them. It reallytruly opened my eyes to being a more accepting person. Panic! At the Disco is one of the strongest influences because they are big proprietors of accepting everyone and are very against slut shaming. They, along with Fall Out Boy have many campaigns in support of minorities such as the lgbt community and this has shaped my worldview on the value of support and especially of the impact the support can make. Saturday Night Live is another place that I gained feminist views from. Amy Poehler and Tina Fey are two of my biggest role models as they are very strong women who don’t take shit from anyone and they have helped me to place value on myself and become a strong leader myself. Entertainment is such an important thingpasstime in my life that it’s had quite a bit of influence on what I believe is right and wrong and how I see the

    Introduction Weird Al Yankovic’s song and music video for Like a Surgeon, relies on the cultural competences of a primarily American audience in regards to the expected behaviors and actions of medical specialists, such as stereotypes regarding professionalism, competence, and sexuality. These common codes related to doctors, nurses, surgeons etc. are then purposefully disregarded, violating the rule of exclusion in order to create a preferred humorous reading. The video paired with the song itself, also heavily relies on intertextuality and redundancy in an attempt to cement this preferred comedic reading. To prove this, this piece of media will be analyzed though a careful dissection of the signs and symbols used to convey the authors desired meaning, otherwise known as the semiotic method. Analysis Violation of the Rule of Exclusion…
