Ethics of Advertising
Obviously a big topic, but when does an advertisement go overboard?
Is it when
- It claims something that is blatantly untrue (most advertisments avoid this)
- Phrasing something in terms that make it seem one way, but are really another (most late night or mid-day infomercials tend to practice this)
- Or something more seemingly benign, but has a tremendous impact - playing with human psychology!
Have we gone too far in our efforts to sell, sell, sell?
