Media and Politics

I am not a big political person although i have taken more interest in the current election partially because i am older and am interested in my country and mainly because this election will go down in history because i believe Obama will win. My vote without a doubt will go to Senator Obama because i like his platform and trust him more then the other candidates. Basically i just can't wait for Bush to get the boot out of office because he is in my opinion one of the worst presidents ever.
Media has played a huge part in the elections and i think always has. It allows the candidates to get there message out to a larger audience and also accuse rival candidates of unethical things. Overall i am not big on politics but sometimes when i am flipping through the channels i will occasionally stop and watch what is going on in the race to the white house.

Adverstements and the Influences have

Advertising whether i know it or not has a huge impact on my everyday life style. Advertising effects me in many ways such as: what food i buy, what clothes i wear, where i go on vacation, and many other ways. the last time an advertisement influenced me to buy something was yesterday when i bought a 12" sub from Subway because of the "five dollar foot long" commercial. Advertisements come in many different ways, from video games to clothing that people wear with certain brand names on them. Wherever there is an opportunity for a company to promote there name there will be advertisements.

The first link is a link of a commercial by subway that promotes there five dollar foot long subs.
