What disadvantage does the advertisement bring?(give 5 disadvantages)?

Question

must give me disadvantages not advantages..
please help..is for my school presentation..
thanks..

Answer 1

1. Lack of free information (advertisers don't talk about downsides of product, hence not educating the consumer completely)
2. Glamourization of bad habits (e.g. smoking, drinking)
3. Encouragement of consumerist society (everyone covets the material)
4. Perpetuation of stereotypes (e.g. everyone must participate in a heterosexual relationship, you must be thin and sexy to succeed in life, etc)
5. It is hard to control access to advertisements (esp. provocative ones), hence it might cause unfavourable exposure to younger audiences, despite regulatory laws (e.g. overtly sexual ads shown only after 11pm on TV channels - there is no guarantee all kids which the ad is unsuitable for are in bed already and unable to watch the ad)

Answer 2

Look at the mailbox (physical one) About 80 % of printed matter is advertisement. Just consider
1) the drain of resources
2) environmental stress

When looking at most commercials:
3) (Fastfood) Encourages bad diet habits.
4) (clothes/fashion) Over consumtion. "Buy a new outfit, Last weeks is outdated."

Thats 4...I hope that helps.
