Abstract
The goal of this thesis is to examine the frequency in which sexual messages occur on reality television programs targeting an adolescent audience and if the frequency of sexual messaging will effect decision making positively or negatively. A case study explores the concept of sexual messages targeting adolescent audiences on television and other media providing an analysis of how sex is presented, the types of messages, and the frequency in which these messages occur. Secondly, the thesis provides original research in the form of content analysis to reveal perceptions of sexual messages presented to adolescents and if they are perceived positively or negatively through twitter discussion. In addition, this research will also shed light on the frequency in which television networks are employing social responsibility by including safe sex messages and additional resources on social media in juxtaposition with their efforts on television.
