Description:

http://www.mediaed.org In Deadly Persuasion: The Advertising of Alcohol & Tobacco, Jean Kilbourne exposes the manipulative marketing strategies and tactics used by the tobacco and alcohol industries to keep Americans hooked on their dangerous products. Illustrating her analysis with hundreds of current advertising examples from mainstream and trade sources, Kilbourne presents a compelling argument that these cynical industries have a clear and deep understanding of the psychology of addiction � an understanding they exploit to create and feed a life-threatening dependency on their products. Deadly Persuasion casts a critical eye on the corporate interests that lie behind the industries whose products kill more than 450,000 Americans each year.

Sure. Why not bring back Total Prohibition. Repeal the repealing of the Anti-Alcohol Amendment to the Constitution. Hell, just tear up the Constitution and replace it with Das Kapital why don ya. Jeesh.

You will no doubt Ace your class assignment. Why this is the foundation of Political Correctness straight from the early 90's...about the same time America beginning swirling down drain towards the slippery slope of Neo-Marxism.
