Bullying is portrayed in the context where Johny bullies Daniel. However, the film teaches
the oppressed a lesson that they can use their intellect to win over those who oppress them. This is
because later, Daniel uses his wits to outperform Johny in a karate fight that is quite respected. As
such, the bully in this film is challenged by the person he used to bully. This movie has an effect
on the way people perceive bullies in the society. People tend to think bullies are invincible people.
However, this film shows that this is not true because Johny is later defeated by his victim.
Example 2
The news report I am going to present here is one that was published in newser.com about
a girl who complained about bullying and later committed suicide. The girl is said to have
complained to her mother about bullying and later killed herself through overdose. The
newser.com is an online newspaper platform where people can read different stories about what is
happening in different places in the United States.
Bullying is presented in the form of cyber stalking where two 12-year-olds are said to have
done things that they knew would cause the victim emotional distress. The bullying is describe as
heavy harassment that the victim got from her classmates.
The depiction of the bullying incidence here is neither exaggerated nor downplayed as the
news report gives the facts as to what happened. The bullies are described as knowing that their
actions would cause emotional distress to the victim. The victim on the other hand is portrayed as
having complained about heavy harassment from her classmates. The coverage of the story is
adequate because whatever happened to the victim and the bullies after the bullying incident is
explained in great detail. There are no other incidences of bullying shown in the news report.
