2)Negotiated reading: They can negotiate an interpretation from the image and its dominant meanings.

3)Oppositional reading: Finally, they can take an oppositional position, either by completely disagreeing with the ideological position embodied in an image or rejecting it altogether(for example by ignoring it)
