Ad Nation by Wayne Grytting
The downfalls of public advertisement and how it has overall corrupt minds into believing the only way to get a message out is through advertisement is down right sad. A CEO of a major city believes that a city cannot be a city unless it has signs and advertisements. Monuments are no longer symbolic and he described some of the most raw and majestic cities of the world as bland. It seems that ads are only brainwashing people further and further as the days go by. If a person can make money of receive money from an ad, they will go great lengths to do so. Paying around $60,000 a month for an add, is ridiculous. Buildings that could be built for more important meanings are just being built to advertise.

your assessment was helpful. try going into more details about the article. while u find it ridiculous, other people might not. there is a reason why people spend $60,000 a month on ads, obviously they do not think its a waste of money or ridiculous. prove that it is and convince them of otherwise
