The media offers the audience an interpretation of the world.

it is a Representation of the events people and places.    

I think the representation of the super humans is mixed because the colours dont seem very happy and good but it is positive because it shows that anyone can go for there dream even if you have disabilities but another negative is saying that disabled people are super humans isn't very positive because its sectioning them out from other people and makes it seem like people with disabilities aren't like "normal" people
