Further Discussion

For this class, we read a chapter that focused on Marketing and Advertising. We only had one week of discussion on this topic, and I feel we could have gone deeper on the subject. Marketing and Advertising is a very complex topic, I would know because I was majoring in this topic. There is a lot of potential to discuss critical thinking and logic skills, both as the consumer and the company. As a marketer, you are challenged by the company and the consumer to make ethical decisions. The subject of what is considered right and wrong in the marketing world definitely leaves space for discussion and arguments. Although it may sometimes be a personal decision, but when if the company requires it? The controversial topic of PhotoShopping could also be discussed because there are many different points of view people can stand from. Multiple arguments can be made and challenged through class discussion of this topic. I do not think Marketing and Advertising will have to be further discussed than this. I just think this subject is interesting and could be elaborated a little more.
