Smoking Is A Controversial Topic On Modern Society

The campaign educates the smoker who is trying to quick with advice which will give them a clear understanding on how their health is at risk and the consequences that it will have

Tobacco ads have stood out to me from a young age, I was used to seeing cigarette ads in every magazine and street corner. When I was 11 I joined a tobacco advocacy group, I wanted to inform young people my age about the dangers of tobacco but mostly I joined because they paid me. I found these two ads and I remembered sitting in an empty classroom analyzing tobacco ads and discussing how they appeal to us. I found two ads, both from the most recent issue of a popular celebrity gossip magazine. The first major difference one notices is that of the ads is catered to a completely different audience. Blu E-cigarettes cater to the new age of tobacco consumers. While Newport menthol cigarettes are tried and tested, a classic. The major differences in this ad make it difficult to pick which one is most effective at getting more buyers of their product. Newport’s ad is

According to Action on Smoking and Health (ASH), 36.5 million Americans currently smoke, that is about fifteen percent of the population which is equal to the combined population of America’s twenty-five largest cities. Although anti-smoking advertisements are shown throughout the United States, people do not take them seriously half the time. The advertisement in this analysis showcases a grayish background, with the colors focusing mainly on a cigarette box that has the cigarettes put into crayon labels and the box also opens like a crayon box. There is also a child’s writing with crayons saying, “Just like mommy.” From this, the image showcases the dangers of smoking and the causes it has on loved ones. This advertisement uses strong ethos, pathos, and logos to get ASH’s point across very clear.

Approximately twenty percent of adults in the United States smoke cigarettes, it is this habit which is the number one cause of death that is easily preventable. Anti-smoking advertisements are seen throughout our society, usually showing the harmful effects of tobacco through graphic pictures or other shocking images. The advertisement I chose is a black and white image, showing a young man smoking a cigarette, with the smoke from it forming a gun pointed at his head. Off to the side appear the words, “Kill a cigarette, save a life. Yours.” The advertisement makes use of the three rhetorical appeals of logos, ethos, and pathos through its image and implied meanings. Through this, the image is able to convey a strong sense of danger and bring awareness to the deadliness of smoking.

Although tobacco advertisements are banned, people still consume it. The ban started in 1971 and since then has become even more strict on the sponsoring and promotion of tobacco brand logos. Now, all tobacco ads used, dissuade users from consuming. Advertisements in general can be obnoxious and tiresome, but they are sometimes necessary for the seller to get their point across. Ads are either trying to get money from the consumer or driving to change a person’s mind positively. The main reasoning for the creation of advertisements is to persuade the viewer or audience through the evocation of ethos, pathos, and logos, to have a change of mind about the product. The ads I chose are both similar, but have different goals towards their audience.

This anti-smoking video begins by showing adult smokers on the street who become very confused when small children come up to them asking for a lighter. Through the use of ethos, pathos and logos, the story display’s a very powerful message to it’s audience. By using these three rhetorical situations, the writer illustrates an important story to persuade the audience not to smoke cigarettes.

Another woman brings up to a little girl how smoking can increase your risk of aging. This advertisement shows logos into play. Logos is shown when it is stating the reasoning on why children should not start smoking. Pathos is also shown when the adults state the reason why one should not pick up a cigarette. The different kind of effects creates a sense of fear and avoidance of the product.

Advertisements are all over the place. Whether they are on the Internet, billboards, or in a magazine, there is no way of escaping them. They all have their target audience who the specifically created the ad for. In this ad, it targets mainly non-smokers and even smokers. The advertisement we are looking at is a woman’s mouth. Her mouth is slightly open and the inside is swallowed by a black hole. Her bright red lipstick grabs your attention. What disgusts you is her teeth. Her teeth have been replaced with vulgar. Cigarette buds. The advertisement utilizes the three rhetorical appeals of logos, ethos, and pathos through its image and implied meanings. Through this, the image is able to convey a vividsense of disgust and promote awareness.

In the commercial “Icons” for Tobacco Free Florida, it is clear that the video is trying to get people to stop smoking not only in Florida, but also all over the world. Even though Florida only has the 18th highest percentage of smokers in the country, this commercial’s purpose is to help bring down the percentages in every state.

The message quickly lets the viewer know that their habit cost more than just a few dollars and their personal health. It can also affect the health of people who have never smoked. This lack of empathy can stem, not from malice, but from

Smoking continues to be an increasing problem in both the United States and around the world. Advertisements of many types continue to aid in lowering the use of cigarettes by teenagers. In this advertisement, published by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), many rhetorical devices are used to help appeal to the audience’s senses, understanding, and perception on smoking cigarettes. Using a young woman in the advertisement shifts the focus towards teenagers that smoke cigarettes, have thought about smoking, or have been around others that do smoke. With the incorporation of the FDA’s “The Real Cost” campaign logo, facts about the outcome of smoking, and the photograph of the young girl's face, this advertisement serves the purpose of grabbing the attention of teenagers that use cigarettes and warns them of the negative outcomes of smoking by using certain appeals: ethos, pathos, and logos.

The woman clerk tells her that she needs to give more. The advertisement shows the consequences of smoking because the young woman must give part of her skin in order to pay for the rest of the cigarettes. This advertisement was produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention whom is known for promoting anti-smoking. In this advertisement the CDC shows smokers the consequences of smoking through the visual effects. This is very effective because the advertisements show the three rhetorical appeals.

Cigerettes cause cancer, they suppress immune functions, they wrinkle skin, and they can also can cause gum diease. These are all researchable facts about how smoking can affect an individual. By including these facts in the advertisment the Stamp Out Smoking marketers are taking a ethical appoarch. By including facts in the advertisment it makes the ad more crediable. Crediability is extremely important whne advertising anything; if viewers do not believe they can trust you they will be less inclined to take ads seriously. It is always essential to establish crediabilty when

Starting off we see emphasis on a marred woman holding a cigarette, along with the alarming text “Warning” at the top of the ad. “When you smoke it shows” is also clear, due to the large text that was used to display it. Placement of such content like this incites the reader to infer that the propaganda is trying to recommend you to not yield to cigarettes. Smoke is repeated throughout the ad many times to keep reminding the audience that’s related

The authors point out how anti-smoking advertisements do not send a clear message to the students to understand how smoking can impact their health. It seems that the advertisements trick people by sending the wrong message, such as demonstrating that smoking is not as bad as it seems that the more the students see those advertisements, the more propense for the students to smoke. The source is relevant to my hypothesis because it demonstrates that teenagers are unaware of the health consequences that they can get. The author’s goal is for teenagers to understand anti-smoking messages are not explicit and are not demonstrating a clear understanding of the risks that smoking cause. The authors conclude that new advertisements need to be more carefully evaluated for teenagers to recognize that their intentions reflect undesirable outcome in the antismoking advertainments for teenagers to understand smoking and the inevitable result that can be provoked due to smoking.
