EOC Week 2 : Three Examples of Questionable Ethics


Description: Macintosh HD:Users:student:Desktop:0UiWk4jXblt9fh52IQ079JGGo1_400.jpgQuestionable ads you say well from the looks of things they seem to start at using young children as sex symbols. If you look at the love cosmetic ad . They tend to use the young child as a sex symbol. Making it has if you need to buy this and you can be sexy even if you are below the age of eighteen. In the ad they go on to say “ Because innocence is sexier then you think.” With that being said why would they take a young girl doll her up to sell products? What was the real motive they where trying to get across to their demographics. Rights to photo http://whatwaswrongwithus.com/page/6

They are already known for testing the limits in what they do to market their brand. Because as a lot of fashion junkies know, they want you to be addicted to their clothing. In the ad that I found contains two models who have been overly drinking. They show that the girls are in a sense abusing it. A lot of different ethics are often challenged when looking at this ad. Some young girls might think that its okay for them to go out and get super wasted when in reality its not fun or cute. They also seem to use their clothing as the drink or drug in their ads to then get their point across.  Rights to photo http://www.stillad.com/sisley-fashion-junkie-if-not-sisley-maybe-a-credit-card-ad-189.htm






Description: Macintosh HD:Users:student:Desktop:imgres.jpegIn my last advertisement I would have to use the very talk about Carl’s Jr ad with Paris Hilton. Where they tend to say size does not matter. Coming from where she does with a sex tape and others its makes it feel as if they are trying to use sex to sell burgers. That being said a lot of people had taken their catch phases to seriously when we saw them. Leading people to think very  dirty thoughts when looking at the ad.
