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."

Good job Enrique, your text is very original and I liked especially the part of the
ReplyDeletereptilian brain, very interesting
Hi Enrique! your text was so interesting because I think it talks about an original topic, that we've never seen on the blog and about things that when we see the nowadays advertisings we don´t focus on them, like the hidden images, such as the image of Johnny Deep with the icon of Adidas on his headscarf.
ReplyDeleteWell done Enrique!
