Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of religious sect on the Lebanese consumer’s perception of controversial product advertisements. Design/methodology/approach – The study used a quantitative survey that was administered to a purposive representative sample of respondents from the two main Muslim sects in the country, namely, Sunni and Shiite Muslims. Findings – The results indicated significant differences in perceptions between Sunni and Shiite Muslims with regards to the offensiveness of the advertising of controversial products. Briefly, Sunni Muslims found the advertising of social and political as well as health and care products more offensive, whereas Shiite Muslims found the advertising of gender and sex-related products more offensive, and no significant difference in offensiveness perception between the two sects was found with regards to the advertising of addictive products. Research limitations/implications – Two main limitations faced the researchers: the fact that the respondents were not shown examples of offensive product advertisements; and that religiosity was not measured for the respondents, which could also be a factor in offensiveness perception. Practical implications – The study indicates that a consumer’s religious sect can play a determining role in how he/she perceives product advertisement, thus encouraging marketers to consider the differences between these sects while advertising to ensure no potential consumers are alienated. Originality/value – Although research has looked into the impact of religiosity and religion on the perception of offensive product advertisements, minimal research exists on the impact of religious sects on the perception of offensive product advertisement. The results of this study provide some insights into the consumer behavior differences between the two sects.

Full textAbstract:
Using a disguised, structured technique, the authors collected consumer judgments regarding an editorial advertisement entitled “Of cigarettes and science” sponsored by R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company. Respondents were shown an actual newspaper section that contained different types of editorials and advertisements, including the “Of cigarettes and science” item. After the respondents indirectly classified each item as either an editorial or advertisement, they were asked to list at least two characteristics about the appearance or wording of the “Of cigarettes and science” item that caused them to classify it as they did. The majority of respondents thought the item was an advertisement because it looked different from editorial items, was sponsored by R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, and seemed to have a persuasive or promotional content. Over one-fourth of the respondents, however, identified the communication as an editorial because of its lack of direct sales information and its extensive wording. The authors contend that legal and regulatory bodies should consider the effects of both source and intent of the message when arguing consumer impact.

Full textAbstract:
This study is the result of analyzing how the advertising language are transmitted through metaphors, metonyms, and the blended space. The public service advertisement ‘Children’s Safety- Drivers and Guardians’ is related to the Min-sik Law, focusing on prevention of traffic accidents and safety awareness education for children. This advertisement emphasizes the safety awareness of drivers in the Children Protection Zones with the concept of ‘drivers are guardians’ and also emphasizes the reinforcement of safety education for children. In the process of conceptualizing all drivers on the road as guardians, the metonymy was appropriately used, and various aspects of advertisements made in the blended space in the Children Protection Zones, which properly blended the protective space called school and the driver’s space called the road, was utilized. This advertisement, which sets the driver as a guardian on the road, achieved the purpose of the public service advertisement to emphasize safety awareness in the Children Protection Zones, but it did not show the controversial parts of the Min-sik Law, such as responsibility and punishment for traffic accidents. In other words, while emphasizing the safety awareness of drivers and educations on traffic safety awareness for children to prevent accidents, the responsibility and punishment after accidents behind the public service advertisements could not be directly addressed. This requires the addition of conceptual elements in the blended space of the ‘driver’ mental space and the ‘guardian’ mental space.

Introduction. Drug promotional advertisements (DPAs) form a major marketing technique of pharmaceutical companies for promoting their products and disseminating ambiguous drug information which can affect prescribing pattern of physicians. Drug information includes product characteristics, various marketing claims with references in support to increase its credibility and authenticity.Material and Methods. An observational study was carried out on fifty printed drug advertisement brochures which were collected from different OPDs of Guru Nanak Dev Hospital attached to Government Medical College, Amritsar, India. These advertisements were analyzed and claims were categorized into true, false, exaggerated, vague, and controversial on criteria as reported by Rohraa et al. (2006). References of DPAs in support of the claims were critically analyzed for their retrievability from web and validity pertaining to claims.Results. Out of 209 claims from 50 advertisements, only 46% were found to be true, 21% false, 16% vague, 7% exaggerated, and 10% controversial in nature. Out of 160 references given in support of claims, 49 (30%) of references were irretrievable. Out of 111 (70%) retrievable references, 92 (83%) references were found valid.Conclusion. Drug information provided in the DPAs was biased, incomplete, unauthentic, and unreliable with references exhibiting questionable credibility.

Abstract This article focuses on an advertisement campaign run in Danish national newspapers promoting Boeing’s combat aircraft F 18 Super Hornet. The campaign received extensive media attention due to its scale and unconventional methods. On the basis of pragmatic text analysis we describe three features in the advertisements: Genre problems, a controversial depiction of sender and recipient, and problems relating to argumentation. We conclude that (1) the analyzed text is predominantly commercial in intent, although framed as information by a sender position that is partly ambiguous in terms of identity, and (2) the campaign’s main arguments are flawed, since decisive justification is not accessible. Based on the findings, the conclusion suggests that the campaign is best understood as a hybrid between public relations and public affairs.

Full textAbstract:
Television commercials have been the main medium for advertising products/services/ideas to the masses. However, the use of controversial advertisements has shown a manyfold increase in the recent past. Controversial advertisements can be beneficial or harmful for the product; depending on how the target audience perceives them. Even though such advertisements may cause offense to a certain consumer group(s), but advertisers still don’t refrain from using such advertisements to market their or their clients’ product offerings in different segments namely products/services/ideas. Although the majority of research on consumer’s behaviour towards controversial advertisements has been reported from Western countries, very little is known in Asian perspective. In the present study, we attempted to analyze the Indian perspective of consumer’s attitude towards controversial television advertisements based on a survey of 609 respondents (312 males and 297 females). The results obtained indicated ‘political advertisements’ as the most controversial offering to be advertised on television. Consumers were found to be more offended with advertisements where ‘nudity’ was used as the main execution technique. Attitude of consumers towards controversial advertisements and their effect on purchasing behaviour were found clearly correlated to demographic variables including age, education and gender.

Full textAbstract:
This project report is based on offensive and controversial advertising. Over time,
advertising has become an integral part of our lives. With the increase in products, the
advertising level has increased too. In the times of social media, it has become easy to
identify the likes, dislikes and patterns of a particular consumer on internet to target
him with very directed advertisements.
Amidst this clutter, the advertising agencies and the advertisers are trying hard to
capture the attention of the consumers. This leads to them coming up with creative
ways to create path-breaking advertisements. However, often, an advertisement sparks
out controversies and offends the target population.
This report dives deep into the factors responsible for an ad to be taken as offensive
by the consumers. Based on the topic modelling performed on the reviews of various
controversial advertisements according to news, a list of 11 factors is identified.
Additionally, to better understand how these factors influence the controversy, 11
controversial advertisements are discussed in how the factors played a role in the
consumers taking an offense to them.
A survey is administered to a sample of 63 respondents who rate various factors in
how does each of them offends them in the context of an advertisement. The findings
indicate that most of the predominant factors have an average rating of greater than 3,
the mean score on a Likert-type scale of 1-5.
These findings are useful for any agency or advertisers to better understand the
consumer perception.

The prevalence of the TV has changed the practice of American presidential campaign. The so-called "Americanization" campaign is referring to that party elite has given way to media elite in building the campaign strategies. The electronic media has become the main source for voter to access the political information. Each candidate spends huge amount of money for paid media, which has become the single biggest portion of campaign spending. The use of the political TV advertisement could reflect all these characters of "Americanization" campaign. The author will take this political phenomenon to exam the practice, effect and controversies of the U.S. presidential TV campaign commercials. The main discussion as below: The TV political advertisement is found to contain more substantive issue and also easier to be memorized by voters than TV news. TV Political advertisement is also found to have positive effective in improving and positing the image of the candidates and also setting the agendas in campaign. Recently, candidates are using more and more negative TV ads, however the "boomerang effects" might happen if they are not manipulated properly. The research found that negative ads contain more issue and is easier to be memorized than positive ads. It also found that negative ads were easier to get reported and manipulated. It was suggested that avoiding personal attack, focus on policy issue, bring the evidence and taking comparative form will be easier to be accepted by the voters. The victory of Bush in 1988 is equal to his success attack ad strategies. Clinton practiced successful political marketing strategies, which includes precisely ad buy strategies, using ads to setting the agendas and defusing the impact of his negative news, successful negative ad strategies for winning two elections in 1992 and 1996. The impact and controversies of using political advertisements toward American society includes: The rising of the "money politics" was blamed to huge expense of TV political ads. The campaign report by the media was influenced by the TV ads in terms of wording and analysis angle. The using of negative ads discourage voter participation and shrinking and polarizing the electorate.

Full textAbstract:
We live in a world full of constant scientific and technological advances; as a result, the
world becomes smaller, distances become shorter and cultures become closer – this is
globalization. Nowadays, despite their nationality, age, gender, level of education or even
income, everyone has easy and instant access to the information they seek and more:
people can find themselves being confronted by answers to questions they never asked
before, by facts they never considered and by emotions they didn’t expect to feel while
browsing the internet, watching television or strolling in the streets. Theoretically, by
having access to such great amount of equal, unfiltered information, there come more
unexpected encounters with advertisements, rising the need for brands to reconsider theirs
marketing strategies.
As emotions are known to be crucial in the response to ads, the more emotions an ad
induces, the more effective it is. Offensive propaganda is becoming more and more of a
tool by marketers, as it is stimulates several emotions simultaneously.
Taking this into account, the purposes of this study were to (i) test whether offensive
propaganda is, in fact, effective as a marketing strategy and (ii) verify if the same strategy
can be applied to and has the same effect on different cultures (standardization).
Results showed that, although these considerations, years of cultural influence and
costumes still have a greater impact in an individual’s purchase decision and
recommendation motivation. As for controversial advertisement, it was proven to be less
effective than the non-controversial counterpart.Vivemos num mundo de constantes avanços científicos e tecnológicos; como resultado, o mundo torna-se menor, as distâncias encurtam-se e as culturas aproximam-se - isto é a globalização. Atualmente, apesar da nacionalidade, idade, género, nível de escolaridade ou mesmo rendimento, toda gente tem acesso fácil e instantâneo às informações que procuram e muito mais: as pessoas podem ser confrontadas com respostas a perguntas que nunca antes fizeram, por fatos nunca considerados e por emoções que eles não esperavam sentir enquanto navegam na Internet, assistem televisão ou passeando pelas ruas. Teoricamente, ao ter acesso a uma quantidade tão grande de informações iguais e não filtradas, ocorrem mais encontros inesperados com anúncios, aumentando a necessidade das marcas reconsiderarem suas estratégias de marketing. Como as emoções são conhecidas por serem cruciais na resposta aos anúncios, quanto mais emoções um anúncio induzir, mais eficaz será. A propaganda ofensiva está a tornarse cada vez mais uma ferramenta dos profissionais de marketing, pois estimula várias emoções simultaneamente. Tendo isso em conta, os objetivos deste estudo foram (i) testar se a publicidade ofensiva é de fato eficaz como estratégia de marketing e (ii) verificar se a mesma estratégia pode ser aplicada e tem o mesmo efeito em diferentes culturas (standardização). Os resultados mostraram que, embora estas considerações, anos de influência cultural e hábitos ainda tenham um impacto maior na decisão de compra de um indivíduo e na motivação para recomendar. Quanto à promoção controversa, provou-se que é menos eficaz do que a não controversa.

Full textAbstract:
The interdisciplinary collection contains 16 essays by scholars from literary and cultural studies, by sociologists, historians, musicologists, art historians and media experts. Following the introduction to the key issues in cultural politics and propaganda and a synopsis of the essays, an article surveys the reciprocal perception of Austria and the USA from the 18th century onwards. The following essays analyze various historical phases in the complex relationship between Austria (and Central Europe) and the USA. Several essays survey the strategies used to promote Austrian tourism and contrast them with advertisements for American sights, and document the implementation of aid programs for the impoverished societies in Austria in the aftermath of World War One. There follow articles that discuss the role of exiled Austrians in the dissemination of a positive image of Austria and a favorable view of the USA, while two contributions are devoted to the misrepresentation of significant individuals active in Austria in the interwar years. Special attention is then paid to the role of the Marshall Plan in economic reconstruction in Austria and Western Europe, and to the promotion of liberal democracy in the media during the Cold War. The impact of transatlantic exchange programs for scholars and scientists in the countries of Europe under Soviet influence is also considered. The wide range of essays concludes with critical perspectives on political phenomena, such as the apparently exaggerated role of Austrian resistance fighters in the liberation of the country from the Nazi tyranny in 1945, and on the controversy over Dr. Kurt Waldheim as reflected in popular music in the 1980s. The transfer of new concepts of contemporary art in museums and of contrasted cinematic genres resulting in a merger is illustrated in the final two essays.

AbstractPhysical daily contexts are replete with traces of the past. A statue in a park, the name of a street, or an old advertisement can all remind people of specific historical moments or periods. Often, they recall glorious episodes, but traces of less glorious pasts also persist. Among them, the most self-censored ones refer to past immoral actions that tarnish the overly idealized moral standard attributed to the group. As a case in point, material traces of the colonial past became the focus of controversies within formerly colonizing countries during the last decade. European anti-racist movements questioned the colonial heritage of European societies in an unprecedented manner and active social minorities also brought to the fore some traces still in the background of physical environments. Part of public opinion reacted by denouncing the “cancel culture” or the danger of “erasing” history. This chapter outlines a social psychological approach about contemporary perceptions and interpretations of still self-censored material traces of Italian colonialism. Results of a qualitative survey on Italian participants’ representations and attitudes toward a candy with a colonial wrapping will illustrate how Italian participants of different generations question this ephemeral trace and take on the challenge of a cumbersome past.

On November 18, 2021, L'Oréal was accused of false promotion because of sales price discrepancies between Double Eleven Festival's promised prices and other sales channel prices. L'Oréal did not respond promptly to its customer service at first. Later on, L'Oréal handled this controversy by deleting its Weibo advertisement and releasing sales coupons to customers, which ignited dissatisfaction and heated public outcry for its poor customer service.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 5 explores how Lawrence understood the necessity of self-fashioning and self-advertisement. The chapter concentrates on Lawrence’s early connections with esoteric poetry circles in literary London as he mixed with Ezra Pound, W. B. Yeats, Florence Farr, Ernest and Grace Rhys and Rachel Annand Taylor. Lawrence wrote a controversial paper on Taylor for presentation at the Croydon branch of the English Association. While in 1909-10 he was fascinated by Taylor’s sensual love poetry, at the invitation of Edward Marsh in 1913 he associated himself with the Georgian Poets and so began his friendship with Katherine Mansfield, John Middleton Murry and other contributors to the little magazine they edited, Rhythm.

Information technology has drastically changed the ways in which individuals are accounted for and monitored in societies. Over the past two decades, the United States and other countries worldwide have seen a tremendous increase in the number of individuals with access to the Internet. Data collected by the World Bank shows that 17.5 of every 100 people in the world had access to the Internet in 2006, and this number increased to 23.2 in 2008, 29.5 in 2010, and 32.8 in 2011 (World Bank 2012). According to the latest Cisco traffic report, Internet traffic exceeded 30 exabytes (1018 bytes) per month in 2011 and is expected to reach a zettabyte (1021 bytes) per month by 2015 (Cisco Systems 2011). Activities on the Web are no longer limited to seemingly noncontroversial practices like e-mail. The sheer growth of the Internet as a medium for communication and information sharing as well as the development of large, high-performance data centers have made it easier and less expensive for companies and governments to aggregate large amounts of data generated by individuals. Today, many people’s personal lives can be pieced together relatively easily according to their search histories and the information that they provide on social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter. Therefore, technological breakthroughs associated with computing raise important questions regarding information security and the role of privacy in society. As individuals begin using the Internet for e-commerce, e-government, and a variety of other services, data about their activities has been collected and stored by entities in both the public and private sectors. For the private sector, consumer activities on the Internet provide lucrative information about user spending habits that can then be used to generate targeted advertisements. Companies have developed business models that rely on the sale of such information to third-party entities, whether they are other companies or the federal government. As for the public sector, data collection occurs through any exchange a government may have with its citizens.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter reconsiders the persistent problems of discrimination and exclusion in light of psychology research on prejudice and bias. It focuses on three important topics in housing and land use law. First, it examines whether disparate impact claims (i.e., discrimination claims against facially neutral housing policies that have discriminatory effects but lack evidence of discriminatory intent) have the potential to redress implicit, largely unconscious bias. Second, it describes how psychology research on the effect of perceived social norms on prejudice lends support to a controversial provision of the US Fair Housing Act, which prohibits discriminatory housing advertisements and statements. Third, the chapter discusses how psychology research can inform, and ameliorate, exclusion and discrimination in neighborhood and block associations charged with budgeting, zoning, or spending powers.

Full textAbstract:
Having set the backdrop to the private agreements, this chapter discusses how the non-binding agreements emerged from distinct historical and political circumstances. It provides a brief historical overview that traces the growing influence of multinational rights holders on the U.S. government’s intellectual property policymaking processes from the late 1970s to 2012. The chapter then examines in detail four U.S. intellectual property bills, including the controversial Stop Online Piracy Act, which proposed to reshape fundamentally the online regulation of intellectual property rights infringement. In doing so, the chapter documents a significant shift in enforcement strategy from a focus on removing problematic content (e.g., advertisements for counterfeit goods) to disabling entire websites for allegedly trafficking in counterfeit goods. The chapter argues that Internet firms have become global regulators (known as macro-intermediaries) attractive to governments and corporations for policing a wide range of social problems, including counterfeit goods. The chapter concludes that government officials from the U.S., U.K., and European Commission played a central role in pressuring Internet firms to adopt the non-binding agreements. These agreements serve strategic state interests as well as the financial interests of rights holders.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter presents a perspective theory, not yet fully developed, that seeks to analyze the connections between “Social Representations and Corporate Communication” (Penz, 2006; Usunier & Lee, 2009). It is divided into two sections. In the first, descriptive section we identified the organizational dynamics of the Benetton Company utilizing structural elements found in the enterprise’s literature and documents. The objective was to understand Benetton galaxy’s role in globalization and its complex market strategies. Since this was an internal view of the company, data was obtained from internal documents, including the company’s publications, such as Global Vision and Colors publications. In order to understand the company from an external perspective, we consulted studies conducted on the Benetton universe that considered the marketing element as interaction between the company and the market (Kotler, 1997; Nardin, 1987; Semprini, 1996; Moliner, 1996; Tafani, 2006). In the second, empirical section, the social representation of the Benetton brand is analyzed using a large sample of Benetton’s advertisements, selected as the basis for research to identify the perceptive modalities of advertising messages and attitudes in Benetton’s communication strategies (de Rosa, 1998, 2001; de Rosa & Losito, 1996; de Rosa & Bocci, 2009). In this second section the relationship between social representations and corporate communication will be presented in a dialogical perspective that examines the social discourse “of” Benetton in regard to social issues. We will look at the different phases of advertising campaigns (1992-2008, with special focus on one of the controversial campaigns: Autumn-Winter 1992\1993) and the discourse “about” Benetton. The targets of reference for our research program are considered to be not only recipients of the company’s advertising campaigns, but also potential buyers.

Full textAbstract:
"This article discusses the concept of brandcasting in the particular case of a controversial advertorial (ADL) - paid messages in the media sponsored by organized interests to create and sustain a favorable environment to pursue their respective goals. An advertorial is an advertisement masquerading as a journalistic article, blurring the dividing line between editorial content and advertorials. Based on the content analysis technique of 284 advertorials of Newsweek, Polityka and Time, the most widely circulated and read weekly newsmagazine in Poland and the United States of America, the author documents the placement of ADL: proportions of commercial and non-commercial content, detailed typologies, brand positioning, sponsor disclosures, the degree of similarity with journalistic texts and corporate and non-corporate interests. The newspaper advertorial borrows, or just steals editorial credibility from the newspaper and pollutes reliable information. There, of course, might be a place for such kind of advertisements, but they should be more thoroughly distinguished form editorial content than is currently the case. As shown in the article, media do not place sponsor disclosures prominently."

Full textAbstract:
Today, we have a situation that the new media environment has reshaped our conception of reality while changing social spaces, modes of existence, and the functional mechanisms of the private sphere. In the space of new media, the boundary between privacy and publicity is redefined with the emergence of multiple network communities having become a subject of observation and evaluation, collective discussions, and even third party interventions. In the current situation, the privacy/publicity boundary can be defined both through the societal/the individual, and through such concepts as visible/invisible. The new media era sees the personification of online publicness, therefore the very sphere of private life gets consumed by the public sphere open both for being discussed and for being controlled by the government, market, and advertisement. The public sphere has fallen under the power of certain private/vested interests, which only transiently become common, coinciding with the interests of other groups, but not the public sphere. The ambivalent nature of new media, while based on personalisation and filtration, obviously determines the ambiguous and controversial relationship of the public and the private. Thus, the private not only reflects, but also represents the public, whereas the public implements privacy up to its inherent special intimate atmosphere and intonation. This fast-changing virtual reality requires the development of conceptual tools for analysing new content and forms of social and personal life, one of which is the relationship between publicity and privacy.
