Intention is very important behind our actions

Truth is important to respect,
In regard to social media and photos - particularly ones that you may take offence too. - That's the truth accept it happened or is happening - don't react, accept it
Portrayal on screen needs to be representative of the culture it represents otherwise its disrespectful - Finds Shortland Street respectful because it does this
Doesn't find the BK Ad with Women on Bikini's on Horseback ( there was a lot of media attention re this) disrespectful and thinks that women should find this liberating - however, if the woman were bigger that could be disrespectful bacuse th intention behind it would be to highlight weight issues.
Re Gaming reinforcing stereotypes in regard to the representation of women being that they all are made to be one particular way to be disrespectful, however when it comes to media, people would prefer to see good looking people, it's entertainment and therefore it is not a real image - it is a 'fun' image

Media is a form of communication and it is your choice to interact with it, knowing that how can you find something disrespectful when it is your choice to turn it on
Comedy allows disrespectful elements to be accepted
Reaction to disrespect is a bad idea....... to walk away is a better idea
Uses only facebook to deliver his personal information and "friends" etc should know that he is a comedian therefore they should also understand that if they find something to be disrespectful that it was not his intention, he was only having a laugh and therefore maybe shouldn't be a friend if they find it offensive
Tends to change how he communicates with people dependant on who they are and the required etiquette

Maintaing respect in a workplace is very important and if not done is detrimental to your job, your use of media to communicate to your employer can alter that.
