They aren't concerned about the issues, just the most views. "All of us in commercial television are confronted by a difficult choice that commercialism imposes. Do we deliberately aim for the lowest common denominator, thereby assuring ourselves of the largest possible audience but producing nothing but cotton candy for the mind, or do we tackle the difficult subjects as creatively as we can, knowing that we may lose much of the mass audience?" (source F) TV producers know that their audience isn't going to watch a boring debate, so they take out the important issues to get the highest rating. This is just another example of how TV has had a negative impact on Presidential elections.
More than describing his reasons, he hopes that many other people identify with his ideas, so he don’t feel as the only one who degrades computers’ function. Berry’s article draws attention of the audience because we live in a society that barely looks up for reasons for not buying not only computers, but also any other technological advance. We live on a pro technology world. Past generations might always seem technology as an enemy because it is hard for them to catch up with technology. Berry’s intention to persuade readers depends whether the reader agrees or disagrees with his reasons.
Twenge says, “reality TV is very popular, and it is supposed to how ‘real life’ and real behavior without the façade of fictionalized dialogue and story lines. But because reality TV stars are so narcissistic, it’s really a showcase for narcissistic behavior” (pg 7).
Some people would argue that some ideas or images are simply too dangerous or radical to be displayed to the public. How can this be a sound argument, when the same people enjoy and actively reference their freedom of speech? Think about if influential books, articles, or movies were never published simply because they were too “indecent” or, dare I say it, too “thought-provoking”. Since when did people start sacrificing knowledge and intelligence for safety? It’s apparent that at least some people tend to disagree with censorship, recently being the Supreme Court.
A cultural dimension that influences how people manage conflict is whether their culture is one of low or high context. Michael Dorsey displays a low or individualistic culture in Tootsie. Michael is a very direct and tell-it-how-it-is individual in the movie. He does not agree with skating around the issues. As an actor, he feels that his audience should see things for how they really are, versus how the directors, screenwriters want the audience to portray them.
The more information they know about what’s actually going on in the world, they'll become frustrated, stressed, and interested about other subjects. In order to keep the people in the civilization distracted, parlor walls, big television screens, and seashells, earphones that play music, were invented in order to avoid the population from having free will. According to Ray Bradbury, having free will and curiosity in a corrupt society is not always accepted, but may lead to elation; Bradbury proves this in Fahrenheit 451 through the characters Montag, Clarisse, Faber, and Granger.

Social Trust is the idea of ‘faith in people’. Today less Americans believe they can rely on their neighbours and people around them than ever before. Putnam view is this is due to the declining numbers joining group activities and never fully explores other reasoning for this, for instance the media. Most news broadcasts lead with negative reports, as bad/devastating news grabs more attention. The medias delivery of a negative viewpoint is bound to have an impact on it subscribers, their view of the world and society could become more
The children cannot hear what the commercial said so they cannot use it. It does not encourage minors to cuss. That is what makes the commercial funny and acceptable. It also entertains you by showing a commercial about people in a normal setting. Showing you that everyday people like yourself, or most Americans, that fun does happen at work or it can happen at work.
On top of that, a substantial amount of people has to care enough about it and study it for the history to be widely accepted. This is why the Spirit Science video has not made a deeper impact. First of all, not many people know about this. The idea isn’t being widely spread and publicized enough. Second of all, the absurdity of the ideas presented perhaps turned people off and made them uninterested.
Both companies are not real people so they shouldn’t have the right to say why there company is better that’s ridiculous. Without people knowing who is the better TV provider or better candidate all depends on what kind of advertisement that company puts out. So all the ads you see on TV will either make fun of the company or say how bad they are on what they produce or they will do. Big ways corporations get their ads out are on social media nowadays. With Facebook the top social media website you know companies are going to get their ads on there.
