Propaganda

The beautiful people. The celebrities!

The one that utterly breaks my heart is the SPCA commercial that depicts caged, neglected animals, animals with their eyes gouged out, animals beaten to the point they can't walk, starved and disease ridden. Sarah McLaughlin, singer and song writer speaks for the as and her heart wrenching song "Angel" plays in the background. It is horrific and the campaign has been very successful for the SPCA. This is beautiful people, celebrity technique that prompts people to pick up the phone and donate lots of money.

I don't know what the hype is over the Paris Hilton burger commercial because Audrina Patridge's commercial BLOWS her out of the water. She makes me want to eat a Carls Junior Teriyaki burger so I can have her amazing bikini body. If that isn't propaganda I don't know what is! Another beautiful people technique.

A repetition style propaganda: Some of my favorites are "5 dollar 5 dollar foot long!" "I wish I were and Oscar Meyer Wiener."

  1. Good examples. I agree about Audrina Patridge making Carl's look better than Paris Hilton does.
