PREFERRED READING: The audience would agree on with the way the producers wanted to show the text. This is how the producers know their advertisement was successful. Dominant reading: Has a clear message and the audience can relate to the narrative in some way. Negotiated reading: The audience hs consumed the text and agreed. They have their own input and understanding of certain aspects. They do not agree nor disagree, but he can see a point being made. Oppositional reading: Think of as negative and they understand the message but are against it.
