Advertisements 2011.03.02

Advertisements are all around us. They used to only be on television and in magazines, but with the escalation of the internet, advertisers began using this median. It was hard to find a specific advertisement on the web, but when I use the search engine, yahoo, there are advertisements on the side. Specifically an advertisement on the web, I found was on http://www.menshealth.com/. I use this website a lot for advice and different work outs, but many times when someone enters the URL, an advertisement pops up wanting the user to subscribe to the magazine.
The reason we tolerate pop ups and advertisers is because we are so used to them, we have gotten use to them. We have become tolerant to advertisers need to try to sell their products. Advertisers know we cannot help it. We are drawn to certain advertisements, such as my men’s health because I believe in what they are trying to sell to me.

  1. The three elements you listed to complete an argument are very crucial and using those guidelines allows for one to mold and improve their argument from weak to strong. The example you provided in your argument was an example of a poor argument. Your analysis of the stated argument was thorough and definitely could improve the argument if one followed your given advice. Adding detail is crucial to this argument due to its vagueness. The lack of detail in this argument makes it sounds like a weak opinion rather than an argument at all. Overall I really enjoyed this post, especially since your argument example is a hot topic in celebrity gossip which I love to follow.
