Ill Manors: TEDx Lecture

  1. What are Plan B's beliefs/politics? What are his values/ideologies? Explain.
  2. Who is the target audience of the TEDx lecture? Demographics? Psychographics? How do you know? How does this compare to the audience for his music/films?
  3. What does Plan B say about the media? Explain how this can be linked to Cohen's media theory of moral panics? Read this summary of moral panics and the definition from Wikipedia and use them in your answer.


Plan B's political views are against conservative, as he thinks that there is not being enough to support the youth leading to them being seen as anti social. He believes that being poor leads to youth being the way they are and they shouldn't been stripped as ''CHAVs'' & ''scum's'' by the media. 

The target audience for Plan B's Ted x lecture is youth as they will be able to relate to this talk the most, as well as those from the demographic group E, D, C2, C1 and B. this is because these are the kind of people who are most likely to want to see the none political view to issues such as the riot. In addition those who belong to the phychographic group of reformers as they will want to know more about other topics. 

During the TED x talk Plan B stated that the Media are exaggerating stereotypes in order to use them against the youth and constantly make them feel left out of the society. Plan B claims that the media and politics is to blame for the  stereotypes that everyone has of the youths.
