Week 3- Articulation

1) My argument

I want to argue that the advertising is not harmful to society. The fact is that the advertising can raise awareness among public, advertising can make both active internal and external market.

2) How I found my argument

I started with my first research question 'What is the main purpose of advertising?'. I searched the meaning of the term 'advertise', and my overall definition of this word was 'to announce or praise someone or something to public'. Many people can think just promoting products and services are advertising, but I thought many of campaigns that struggled to change our society to a positive direction.

3) New research questions

• Is increased consumption a harm to society?
• What advertising can be a example of effecting society in a good way? 

4) Connections to the Harvard Sampler

My topic is related to the section about the Internet. Today, as the impact of the Internet rises, the proportion of the online advertising takes a great part of the all advertising. So, when I argue about advertising's effect, it is hard to ignore the role of the Internet.
