Blog 1 "Hype"

                           In daily life, advertisements are seen from every direction each day. Throughout advertising, many human minds were effected.The writer of the passage (Kalle Lasn. "Hype") argues about advertisement in America. Kalle Lasn quarrels about how advertising brainwashes human minds, in order to make billions of money. I agree with this statement briefly because in reality, businesses find every way to make money.
                           According to the passage, Kalle Lasn used the term, "commercial pollution". Throughout reading the passage, I realized in my point of view that commercial pollution is when millions of ads from around the world are posted in every place possible. As for an example, an advertisement would of appeared in a movie theatre, before the time of the film begins. An advertisement would have also appeared in posters, while sitting inside of a subway/train. I find Kalle Lasn's opinion of advertising significant, because it is the reality of advertising. I believe that advertising is another way of business. No matter how deadly or poisonous the item being advertised may be, companies use advertising as a specific mental communication, causing the individual mind to ponder about the product and think about buying it later.
                            During the passage, Kalle Lasn describes commercial pollution as a way of thinking. As for examlpe, she says how hearing, "Beethoven's Ninth Symphony play", was not as much as hearing, "that kid singing the Oscar Meyer wiener song." She explains how advertising brainwashes the mind.
