Advertising and Consumer's Self-esteem

Other Issues in Media and Society

I will put some links of my classmates which I think are somehow related to my topic. For example:

  1. https://mediasociety8.home.blog

Rucha’s blog is related to mine, because it is about How Media Portrays Body Image. However, she talks about Body image from her point of view. Rucha in her blog mentions that she had experienced the feeling of not fulfilling media’s standard and so reading her topic will give you some more information about Body Image and Media.   

2) https://anetapolouckova96.wixsite.com/advertisingsociety/our-story

Aneta’s blog is about Advertising and Media where she explains, that advertising may have negative and positive impacts on our society. In her “My View” part, she recommends that companies should approach more responsibly, especially in their advertising campaigns. Her topic is closely related to mine, so check that out!

3) http://mediaportrayals2019.blogspot.com

Alima’s blog is about Portrayals of Minorities in TV. I think it’s very interesting because minorities in TV ads are also displayed the wrong way or it might be simply offensive. If you think of the last year scandal of Dolce Gabbana (chinese advertisement) after which Chinese people refused to shop at D&G stores, Dove advertisements where black woman undresses herself and turns into white girl, pointing out she is “dirty” and many more,.. you will see that even for big corporate companies it is hard to see what is actually wrong behind it. Although Alima in her blog does not explain advertisements etc, but she explains how are minorities perceived and viewed in TV.

Linda mentions in her blog that excessive and unreasonable use of social media may affect our metal health negatively. It leads to comparing one’s body to celebrities and effort to look good as someone else on the edited picture. In her blog she explains everything very well. 

5) https://myprojectextravaganza.home.blog/

Zdenka has a very nice topic. In her blog she writes about Emotional Branding which is used by the most prosperous brands in the world. And that is what make them so successfull.

I recommend all of these blogs above! 🙂
