Textual Poaching
Research Question:
-
Topic – Audience responses to seeing homosexuality in characters on t.v.

Significance – Will help us understand stratagies that can be applied to the audiences for future uses.
Argument:
-
Claim – gamekeeping and textual poaching is responsible for homophobic tendencies.
-
Reasons – more people are reacting with homophobic tendencies rather than taking the “initiative” to be homophobic. Becomes more accepted by the masses.
