    Initially, Advertising strikes me as in the sense of typical publicity, or the need to get more information in a faster approach. These days, it has taken a much more in-depth perspective, becoming an indispensable characteristic of our societies’ habitual consumerism. As technology advances without limitations, we scrutinize the benefits & troublesome facades of this ever-growing element in our culture. From implementing an artificial demand for products & encouraging excessive consumerism, to creating an intrusive & biased marketing atmosphere, it seems advertising can have no constructive traits. Yet we discover how they assist in funding Television Programmes & Newspapers as well as informing customers of the availibilty in products, to name a few of the “Pro’s”.…

    Advertising is used regularly by companies to showcase their products to the masses. But there is a downside on how they show their products to people, ad 's are often seen in newspapers and on television, some of them are so ridiculously non-related to the product they are selling that it becomes a popularity contest between companies on who does the best ad, in specially on television. Advertising should not be permitted to show anything non-related to the product. Because it can seduce the audiences into buying something they don 't need. Ad 's can be used to fool people into buying something that 's harmful for them. Advertising should be all about the product, describing it and explaining on why you should buy it, but most of the time they are misleading. This mean that they only mention the name of the product and nothing else about it and show a bunch of non-related things within the product.…
