Advertising And Advertising

Children tend to absorb the contents with a sense of judgment. This is because their curiosity sometimes leads to terrible consequences, in this case, the addiction to alcohol. “A national study … concluded that greater exposure to alcohol advertising contributes to an increase in drinking among underage youth. Specifically, for each additional ad a young person saw … he or she drank 1% more. For each additional dollar per capita spent on alcohol advertising in a local market … young people drank 3% more” (Alcohol Advertising and Youth). Therefore, the commercials do have a great impact to the number of drinking adolescents, since the number of underage alcohol consumption rises as advertisement rates rise. If such commercials continue to display on the media without any types of appropriate-content filters, the number of teenage alcoholics will continue to rise as years pass by. As a result, we must greatly reduce the number of commercials referring to alcohol products, to minimize the possibility to create future drinkers under the legal age.

The drug war that the U.S. government is waging is not limited to law enforcement crackdowns and mandatory prison sentences. According to the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention, declines in teen drug use are preceded by a generally higher awareness of the harms of drugs (Torr 39). Obviously, the perpetrators of the national anti-drug campaign are alert to this fact, and they have put it to their use. Recently the Office of National Drug Control Policy, or the ONDCP, has used the media, specifically television, as a tool to flaunt anti-drug propaganda to the American public. Television commercials about the dangers of marijuana use have flooded T.V. networks. In fact, the ONDCP actually spent $3.2 million on two

Exposure to alcohol advertising is an everyday occurrence. Alcohol advertising is persuasive not only to adults but to those who are too young to buy alcohol legally. Although parents and peers have a large impact on youth decisions to drink, marketing also has a significant impact by influencing the attitudes of parents and peers and helping to create an environment that promotes underage drinking. Alcohol companies focus billions of dollars on advertising their products and still claim that the effect is minimal. I pose a few questions that are; who are the targets of alcohol advertising? How does alcohol advertising affect the people targeted by alcohol companies? Finally what actions are being taken to

Today it is not uncommon to be watching television and come across an advertisement promoting the use of alcohol and cigarettes. Both substances are detrimental to your health, and have no medical value yet both are legal to anyone of age.

What would you do if you were to find out, that just by watching an advertisement on television, it can lead you to drug problems, health issues, or even death? With this, alcohol distributors poison the mind of the young and make them believe that drinking can really bring all the pleasures portrayed in the advertisements, like the beach parties, celebrations, and fun at sporting events Alcohol, that may be consumed, has been a very important aspect of the world. Many people enjoy being able to have the feeling you receive when they do drink any form of alcohol. Alcohol advertising influences not only adults but teens and children who are too young to purchase it. Parents have a large impact on children 's decision to drink, but marketing also has a greater impact on the children 's decision of underage drinking. Not only is the consumption bad for children, but it is also unhealthy for adults. Alcohol advertisements are advertising a person to kill themselves, because the consumption of alcohol will not end on a happy note. Alcohol companies spends so much money advertising their product through television, that almost every person in america watches. Alcohol companies see the money in youth and continue to advertise it to gain more control on the youth. Alcohol companies target the youth to drink it. They also see people they look up to such as role models that may drink alcohol which makes them think it is okay for them to drink. Advertising alcohol should not be

Alcohol is one of the most used “drugs” in America. There are three type of drinkers, people who don't drink alcohol, people who drink casually, and alcoholics. Alcohol makers spend about three billion dollars on advertising their product. They also pull sixty five billion dollars in revenue per year, that's a lot of money! The people the alcohol advertisements who are targeting are young people and alcoholics. Alcohol can also cause different behavior, and it may not be good for some people. It can also cause some serious health problems.

This paper analyses the research methodologies used in selected previous literatures to conduct their research regarding the effect of alcohol advertising on adolescents. Accordingly, the limitations for the methodologies used in the selected articles are discussed. Consequently, this paper further suggests a more appropriate method in conducting future research in effects of advertising in adolescents.

According to the World Health Organization, "each year 6 million people die due to tobacco related illnesses. If current trends continue, it is projected that by 2030, tobacco will be responsible for more than 8 million deaths each year and 80% of these premature deaths will be among people living in low- and middle-income countries.” Tobacco advertising is a worldwide marketing campaign that displays bright and colorful images that appeal towards teens and young adults. These images portray false ideal of masculinity, youth, and freedom. The prohibitions of tobacco advertising should be enforced by the government in order to prevent tobacco industries from targeting undeveloped countries with poor education, reduce tobacco related illnesses, and limit the access of tobacco to children.

Advertisements work in such a way that we grow to envy those we are not; they exploit our perceived flaws by displaying a person who is the living and breathing version of who we wish to be. John Berger in his book, Ways of Seeing, explains that publicity works by convincing his reader that advertisements use envy to entice the public to buy products: “Publicity persuades us...by showing us people who have apparently been transformed and are, as a result, enviable” (131). Though Berger published his book in 1972, his arguments about envy and publicity still hold truth, perhaps now more than ever. Furthermore, the more present advertisements are in our everyday life, the more envious our society becomes. With the power of envy, those who fall under its spell become choiceless, and therefore powerless. Berger also argues in his book that there is a correlation between the number of advertisements we see and the less freedom Americans possess. However, Berger believes that capitalism hides this powerlessness with the illusion of choice: “Publicity helps to mask and compensate for all that is undemocratic within society” (149). This idea Berger has relates not only to the advertisement of products, but also to present-day politics. Withheld information creates power using envy which is used in both advertisements and the US government. As more envy is created with modern day technology, and we become more immersed into social media, the further we stray from democracy.

Look around you, can you spot any ads? Advertisement is constant in my life and influencing my decisions. Any time we turn on the television ads are always going to be showing. The ads are on our phones, on the radio and basically all around us. The ads influence us without us knowing, with the tricky words and the “amazing” deals. The ads have been around since before I was born and will continue to be around long after my generation is gone.

Each day we are constantly barraged and hounded with the promise of a better way of living. It doesn’t matter whether you are the epitome of egotism or the embodiment of inhibition, the advertising industry has honed a sure-fire way of nit-picking at your insecurities and luring you into a trap designed to offer immediate, yet short-lived, satisfaction. As adolescents, we are attached at the hip to all forms of social media and are naturally subjected to endless streams of advertising, whether we realise it or not. Do the words “Fit-Tea” ring a bell at all? On average, it is estimated that teens are exposed to thousands upon thousands of ads each day, a factor that advertisers happily use to their advantage. While we may not think it, we adolescents are an easily-targeted and influenced demographic due to our disposable incomes and insecurity, advertisers often preying on our basic human need to feel accepted. Being such easy targets, we are exposed to advertisements on virtually every platform imaginable: whether it’s on Facebook, Instagram or even (though much less likely nowadays) reading a magazine. Such is the case for this ad for L’Oréal Nude Magique Foundation found in Dolly Magazine. Upon absentmindedly flicking through the magazine and stumbling upon this feature, I found myself unexpectedly drawn to the ad, but by analysing this ad using the AIDA model (Attention, Interest, Desire, Action), the exact reasons why and how this ad managed to capture and hold my

Advertisements have come up with schemes to manipulate just about anybody into buying their products. They use multiple methods to draw in consumers just by how they word their slogans, photoshop their ads , and who they use to promote their products. Ads use weasel words to change the meaning of their slogans. Weasel words are words that make ads sound as if they’re making claims when they’re basically saying nothing at all. Their technique is to make the audience believe their products can do exactly what they say they do. They manipulate their audience by making it look like they’re making claims that their products work, but it’s not always true. Ads use photoshop to give the illusion of perfection. This makes the audience believe that if they buy what the ad is advertising, they will look a certain way. When ads use popular celebrities to promote their products, it makes fans that look up to them want to use those same products. Olay uses techniques to make their audience believe their products are efficient by using manipulative claims, photoshop, or well-known celebrities.

Television and the internet is a good channel of passing the messages about the adverse effects of the use of marijuana. The office of the National Drug Control Policy is an American government action which depends on safeguards the health of the people of America. The "above the influence" initiative is a program of the not-for-profit Partnership at Drugfree.org. Their overall goal is to help teens reject negative influences of drug and alcohol. The initiative is a friendly site for the youths since it uses favorable language and identifies with the youth 's lifestyle while trying to change it. Drug abuse affects everyone in the society from the young to the old. However, in recent years, the abuse of marijuana has majorly been linked to teens. Is because of the peer-pressure that spreads at an alarming rate. In the current digital world, youths are looking for information over the internet, as opposed to hard copy newspapers and magazines. The internet or the TV is mostly used by teens and adults in looking for new information. Advertisers on the internet compete to catch the eye of the readers. I choose two advertisements that warn people not to smoke the marijuana. The two advertisements are on the office of the National Drug Control Policy advertisement, and the other is an “above the influence." The two sites have different audiences with the latter have more appeal for the youths.
