Social, Historical and Cultural Contexts (Cuffs)

Social, Historical and Cultural Contexts
Social context - how media products reflect the society in which they are produced and that of their target audience.
Cultural context - how media products reflect the arts and culture, including popular culture, of their time.
Historical context - how media products reflect events from the past and social changes.

What is a social, historical, cultural context and how might it influence a media text?

Media contexts such as social contexts reflect and influence a media text. 
Media texts heavily reflect society being multicultural  in order to educate audiences. An example of this is 'Cuffs', which includes a wide range of sexualities, races and ethnicities. This is done because it is stereotypical of society today.
