Abstract

The 'uses-and-gratifications' approach explains media use as a result of the needs of the consumer. This theory, however, pays little attention to the way the user obtains gratifications from media-content. Obviously, the communicator has a part in this as well. Taking the concepts 'gratifications sought’ and 'gratifications obtained' as a starting point, this article tries to illustrate the interaction between communicator and receiver in the case of reality tv.
