This is going to be my final AB post. =] As I was watching America's Next Top Model, I realized that I should research the success of the winners from the show and why they have and have not found success. My primary source is the actual show.
claim: Tyra Banks can transform ordinary girls into "top models" through 13 weeks (?) of modeling challenges and lessons.
evidence: Winners from each cycle have gotten modeling contracts and CoverGirl contracts, as well as other advertising and modeling jobs. Even the "losers" on the shows have gotten modeling exposure and gained experience to book jobs.
purpose: The purpose of this show is to give young ladies the opportunity to become models through the challenges and lessons given to them by fashion experts and professional models themselves.
audience: Women of all ages, some men. People who are interested in fashion and the modeling industry.

okay--i'm going to need some help thinking about america's next top models... what is the context for thinking about fashion and the culture of fashion (plus the fashion industry!?) in the u.s., on popular t.v... it's nice how you pose the claim of the show--that tyra banks can transform any individual within a certain amount of time. is this a fantasy? a reality?
