Jane's traumatic experiences lead to instability in her relationships, and ultimately give her an excuse to leave when she is triggered by things that inflicted pain upon her as a child. According to Psych Central, a trigger is something that sets off a flashback and transports the person back to the original trauma. As an adult, Jane is triggered by possible serial abandoners, beauty, and money. When she encounters a woman in possession of beautiful or wealthy qualities, she automatically describes her in a way in which they seem inferior. This can be seen when Jane meets Blanche Ingram, a socialite, "Miss Ingram was a mark below jealousy; she was too inferior to excite the feeling. [...] She had a fine person, many brilliant attainments; but her mind was poor, her heart barren by nature," (220). Jane is triggered by women with beauty and money because her cousins Georgiana and Eliza, two beautiful and wealthy women, would get whatever they wanted just because they were 'more deserving' of it by societal standards (27). Jealously and hatred towards these types of women cloud Jane's thoughts and feelings, and lead to damage within her relationships. In addition to being triggered by beautiful and rich women, Jane is triggered by and attracted to serial abandoners. After leaving Lowood, she finds a new job at Thornfield where she works as a governess. When talking

The 1987 film Broadcast News focuses on the inner workings of a broadcast news department as it shows various friendship and romantic relationships within the workplace. By showing the personal lives as well as professional performances of broadcast reporters in this fictional drama, the film delves into a few key ethical dilemmas. The main characters are Jane Craig, a producer, Aaron Altman, a broadcast reporter, and Tom Grunick, a newcomer to the news reporting profession. Perhaps one of the ethical issue most pivotal to the plot is when Tom decides to stage a shot of him crying in order to splice it in as a reaction to an emotional story told by one of his interviewees in a story he was running about “date rape”. Although doing so compromises

Furthermore, this demeaning and negative attitude Jane is exposed to is further instigated when her cousin, John Reed, expresses her situation by saying: "You have no business to take our books; you are a dependent, mama says; you have no money; your father left you none; you ought to beg, and not to live here with gentlemen's children like us". The truth of Jane's unfortunate situation is expressed against her which results in her feeling no true support from this family and confides only in her childhood nursemaid- Bessie, who although behaves inconsistently and has “a capricious and hasty temper”, is the closest mother figure to her. Furthermore, the friction between Jane and John is further emphasised when the first physical aspect of violence is introduced to the reader through a graphic portrayal, further showing the ultimate rejection Jane experienced

“The whole problem with news on television comes down to this all the words uttered in an hour of news coverage could be printed on one page of a newspaper”. The average news cast is only twenty-two minutes long,and that's not nearly enough time to cover the days events.In Neil Postman’s essay “The News” Postman talks about the structure,content,and goals and results of a television news cast.

As a governess, Jane is shown the life of the luxurious. Mr. Rochester's mansion is overwhelming, and his parties are extravagant. Mr. Rochester speaks to her frequently, because he needs someone to listen to him. When Edward reveals to Jane his former cheating wife, she feels a connection to him on personal level. Jane has never felt this since her relationship with Helen Burns at Lowood. Jane becomes

At the beginning of television news an arrangement existed between television journalists and the public. It was look at as that in modern times promotion journalism was normal. The United States was the modern, broadminded leader of the free world.

In this passage from the novel, Jane begins to understand what will become of her if she gives into the consuming passion that she often feels:

When it comes to finding about the news of what’s going on in our world, we want details and facts. We want the juice of what’s actually going on. The debate between the efficiency of newspapers and TV news, TV news is a lot more effective.

This goes well with Jane completely and she is greatly happy to have him calling her rude and playful descriptions once again. Her self-respect is most important to her, and this theme dominates the novel.
