Introduction The media has grown gradually over the last few decades to become an integral part of life, almost indispensable. The media has also been a crucial tool of power and influences various aspects of modern-day life. One of the most important aspects influenced by modern media is class and how it is seen. The understanding of social realities is mainly formed by media and the content produced for the general audiences. How various social classes are seen in various places is dependent on how the media portrays them (Deery and Press, 2017). Specifically, the impact of the mighty in society in presenting the other classes in media is essential to how these classes are viewed. This is because media, like all other tools of power, are owned by the mighty who ‘run’ the world. This essay demystifies the general understanding of various classes and why the media is responsible for these opinions. Popular depictions of several classes are investigated, alongside harsh realities that are exempted by the media. Monarchs The monarchs represent the royal families, with one of the most prominent royal families being the British monarch.

The lives of the monarch are mainly in public display, especially the positive aspects of their lives. Major events such as important government functions are graced with their presence and massive media coverage awarded these events. There is a section of the people in the UK who view the royal family the way the majority of media outlets represent it. Royal weddings make a fuss globally with massive coverage and viewing as people associate themselves with the monarch (North, Woodacre, and Alvestad, 2018). Monarchs are part owners of major media houses, and their influence on how they are depicted is not a wonder. The position of the monarch as a role model on how people should behave, dress, and eat is carefully presented. The monarch is viewed to represent what it means to be a citizen of a particular state, almost as if they are custodians of the culture. This is how this group is popularly perceived as it is accorded immense respect and negative reports are criticized harshly. Upper Class The upper class is composed of wealthy individuals who mainly own means of production in society. These individuals are close to the ruling class and essential in the general
