is there something about advertising that bothers you?

Do you think you could do adequate research on your particular argument to prove your point?

Do you mean advertising in general? Or specific things about it?What bothers me most is the use of deception to get someone to view ads. If it looks like a letter from the government about treasury bonds, it should not have a car dealership ad inside.

Too many advertisers use ads which are dumbed down to the lowest common denominator. This makes alot of ads simply un-watchable by educated people. I use Tivo and skip most ads because of this.

There's a commercial for FSN. They always have a Pittsburgh Pirate on there and they always say " FSN, Pirates Fans First ". It makes no sense what-so-ever. I don't think I'd want to research my argument to prove the point that the initials have nothing in common with saying.

Umm, yeah. Marketing now focuses on extreme thought intrusion based on psychological studies of how the brain works. They exploit our medical knowledge and psychological understandings to get your money by using specific colors, subconsciously audible sounds and visual stimulus. Did you know that increasing nagging in children for a toy is a common business practice? Psychologists have studied your children so that they know how to present a commercial to them so that they go nag their parents for it, understanding that 41% of their toy sales come from a child naging about it until the parent gives in... They don't care about you or their product, only about care about your money, being put in a few choice people's pockets. And they're greedy, every year they have to make more, so they devlop increcingly unethical practices.

Yes and No.I mean with out ads we wouldnt know whats better and whats new.. you know.. and the things that does bother me is that they're so fake.. they make their products seem so flawless and perfect.. They're is always a catch to almost everything.. And i also hate the dieting commercials because most of them are pills and its like.. EAT RIGHT AND EXCERSIZE.. that it.. another thing that annoys me a little are the fast food commercials.. the food on the commercial never look anything like the thing you actually get.. I just wish the commercials were real and didn't hide anything.thats all as for the research i could do it just dont want to
