Disabilities in the Media Assignment
Choose at least five (5) television shows or two (2) movies that include people with disabilities.
You must watch them (all of them). Write the title, what happened (plot), and how the disability
was presented. Write a response. Be honest — it doesn’t have to be a positive response. Just let
me know what you think: Is the information positive? Is it respectful? Is it true? Does it
promote stereotypes? What are some other’s opinions of the show’s portrayal of disability (ask a
friend/family member)?
