for me, media criticism is a form of fannish expression. it is also inherently biased, as we all bring ourselves to the stories we watch, read, and explore to create meaning with the storyteller. part of a critic’s job is to recognize how our lived experiences and narrative preferences inform our engagement with a piece, and to communicate that context in our criticism & analysis.
