Marketing to Kids
The main idea of the article was to point out what advertising to children as young as 6 months old does. First of all, companies are using Shrek to advertise their items, but at the same time, telling kids to exercise an hour a day, so being entirely hypocritical. Then all these ads are also giving kids the wrong message; “It’s not about who you are but what you have.” Though, what I found interesting was that there’s more power in the hands of the Federal Trade Commission to regulate advertising to an adult rather than a child– something rather insensible.
