The subliminal advertising
There are several forms of subliminal advertising. The most well known type involves hidden images, like paintings of Joe Camel where the background and his cigarette's smoke trail form the word "sex."
Similarly, you have instances of the "Fight Club" variety, where very brief glimpses of images are edited into a moving picture (movies, TV, etc.).
Perhaps the least known of (yet most often used these days) is an appeal to your "reptilian brain," or basal ganglia, the part of your 'noggin' responsible for various instinctive emotional responses (fight or flight).
This is commonly used by mainstream news media outlets such as Fox News and CNN. It could be exemplify by regular attempts to cause fear or anger through "Amber Alerts," "Terror Watch," "Financial Crisis" and the like. This is done in part to drive up sales from advertisers pushing goods/services intended to soothe you.
Think: news-blah-blah-FEAR-FEAR-FEAR (commercial break) "take [insert drug here] to give you a good night's rest."
