In conclusion, postmodernism is controversial as it itself is a grand narrative and therefore merely a theory and doubts creativity and the progress of creativity and originality by having no faith in anything being newly created, something which society and modern society deemed itself to be supporting and based upon. Postmodernism argues that there is no meaning to anything anymore, that everything is superficial but when everything has an implicit message coming from the 'cultural leaders' to large masses of people how can media texts now, be postmodern and empty of meaning when they hold something much more important subliminally. I think this causes the controversy because as barriers of modernism have broken apart, it has allowed the idea of postmodernity meaning nothing in place of meaning in our society, something which I don't think any society can live on.
