Then go to book shelf: Critical Thinking, Ppgs. 343-347 Choose ONLY ONE

This week, we take a look at marketing and advertising, and see how it affects our ideas and the decisions that we make. And the end of chapter 10, two different authors give their perspectives on how we should deal with advertising, specifically as it relates to children: Margo Wootan in “Regulating Food Advertising for Children” and Robert Liodice in “Advertising and Freedom of Speech: Beware of the Food Nanny.” This week, you are going to be responsible for taking what you have learned about advertising and applying it to one of these articles.
