Choose a current (aired within the past 6 months) commercial from the United States. Include a link to the commercial in the write up (from YouTube, the company’s website, etc.) Describe the commercial: Is it a good or a bad commercial? Who is the target audience? Does it break current stereotypes or follow them? Who may be offended by the commercial/what are some possible unintended effects?
FORMAT
The paper should be typed and neat. It should be 2-3 pages 1’ margins written in Times New Roman and double-spaced. The page count does not include your bibliography. Don’t write a paper longer than specified in the assignment, or you’ll be penalized. If you play games with margins, leading, font size, etc., to try to trick us into thinking the paper is shorter than it is, you’ll be severely penalized. Also, anything less than half a page will not be counted as a page. References in the text, and a bibliography at the end, are required. If you state a fact in your paper, you should provide a citation, to show where you got that fact! The format of this material should follow the style of the American Psychological Association.
