Adorno states that there is a difference between High Art (shakespeare, Novels ,Plays) vs Low Art( Media). High art is stuff that is intellectual and makes you think. He says that media is bad for the society and distance people from each other and false needs are created. He says we suffer from Commodity Fetishism( obsession with objects and things to buy) and also that every film is the same they remake movies.
I disagree with him because I think media forms and brings the society closer together and also we deserve to be entertained and distracted. The media product that our group plans to make will not adhere to Adorno's theory because it will be intellectual ask well as entertaining.
