Is it "bad" to make someone desire something that she may not have otherwise wanted; to manipulate another persons temptations or desires?

Advertisement is the only way these days to promote ur product. How will people buy or ask the shopkeeper about your product until they don't know about that. Suppose a company XYZ has launched a new product ZZZ but haven't advertise that, in this case they will not get any desired sales. So today is the world of advertisement. Company who is having effective ad campaign will lead the market.

Advertising is a mean by which companies try to sell their products, schemes. It is one way of passing information through mass media.
Yes, many people or companies do use it to manipulate other people into buying things undesired by them. But, they have to make a living to you knw at the end of the day by earning money by selling tht "watsoever".
In the end, advertising isnt evil but yes is used by some in a manipulative manner

No. After all, nobody is putting a gun to another persons head to buy the best pizza.
We live in a free market. Hats off to those firms that make a heck of a product and offer it at a competitive price.
This is the essence of a component that makes life in the U.S. great. We should be thankful that the masses chose that which strives to serve excellence > and if we are honest, we all want the best of things in every aspect of our lives.

No, don't think its evil, just sometimes verging on obscene, cruel, selfish and sinful to make a person feel "less than" if you don't purchase their product.
Its insulting that advertisers are self-serving for their bottom line, they try to dumb down the public into following like sheep, bad, good, safe or not....

It depends on the matter and materials for which you advertise.
Mad people like "DEADLY *****" advertise for not having the p e n i s and want a support from others to satisfy the GFs. Good work they do!!!
