Free Write Reflection
In Project Web I have done a decent amount of research and I have about three outside sources. I would still like to to do more research because I want to have l lots of research when I start writing my essay. That way it can prevent me from writing a dull essay. I would like to do more research such as ways of advertisers are misleading, how much they spend annually on ads, and how psychologically they grab the consumers attention. My sources are reliable because they are essays written about advertisers that have been graded by a college professor, websites such as the CSUN library data base. The steps I need to achieve to have a great blog to do lots of research, write well, drafts from reliable sources and making the blog attractive.

These are a few outside sources I found that are related to my topic and I will be posting/discussing for Project Web. The gist of my sources are about economics and advertisements, more specifically how advertisers are deceptive when airing out their products, in which they tie the consumers money, even if they cannot afford it, and emotion. The marketers try to grab your attention with humor, sex, or the affection of a women (model) and use effective communication to make real of an individual's fantasy will come true if you buy their products. They also advertise by using emotions by making the consumer think if you don't buy their goods you will stay ugly, keep a non luxurious/non sports car, or will live a mediocre life. Slipping this idea into your head without you knowing until these advertisements keep on pushing the idea if you buy their goods you will live a better and a happier life. Even when some of these ads have false advertising.
