disability in the media

after talking about disability and how it is portrayed in the media i watched an episode of 'undatables' to see if this followed the stereo type of the negative weak vulnerable people. after watching, i noticed that the programme actuallly  gives the disabled people some power and an idea of a more abled persons life by allowing them to find love. how ever why use their struggle to find love as a source of entertainment for the more abled society, as if  the media are humiliating them in a discrete manner. Also the name Undatables also is quite a derogatory term to call these people as it states that they are unable to do something hat their disability should not effect.
