A niche audience is a small, selected group of people which share a very unique interest. This may mean in television programmes, films etc but can also in the main public eye for example, products you can buy in normal stores.
Personally, the types of media texts that I consume which are targeted at a niche market, are programmes which would include information about Norwich. Normally, Norwich is seen as a place to mock and ridicule the population from being brought up in the area. For example, in comedic programmes, such as Live At The Apollo (Marcus Brigstoke and Russell Howard) and also Alan Partridge like to do this frequently.
On the opposite side, there are some programmes which specifically are selected for an audience maybe for different cultures and being an equal amount of races into it. For example, In Eastenders there are many different races which show different cutltures and could also be played around with the show stories, For example, gay relationships with a muslim and christian which helps show contriversy in problems in religon.
