Luke, having an Egoist point of view, wants to do what benefits him and disregards other people around him as long as it’s good for him. He also wants to take Chris’s spot as manager. If Luke tell Chris to go on with the advertising contract and just do it then Chris will remain team leader because his job won’t be jeopardized and therefore Luke won’t be able to take over his job. As an egoist, Luke doesn’t care about people’s health if they think the yogurt is healthy because he thinks only about himself, therefore under those circumstances Luke will tell Chris to go ahead and do the advertising for Quebec milk because Chris will get in trouble and maybe get fired and Luke will take over his place. The second opinion that Chris asked for was from his other team mate named Maria. She has a Utilitarian point of view, so when Chris presented the situation to her, the first concern she had was the harm it would do to everyone who ate the product. If they decide to go ahead and market it, then everyone who buys the product will become unhealthy and have health problem compared to only one person (Chris) getting in trouble. Therefore, Maria told Chris that the best ethical decision to make would be to refuse the deal and if he gets fired, to go find another job somewhere else. Chris didn’t know what to do at this point because he has a family to support and he has to pay for his kid’s private school but at the same time he would be lying to thousands of people. Chris finally brings in his last team mate named Jacob.

The animal industry is responsible for the majority of the air pollution because

Advertising has been around for decades and has been the center point for buyers by different subjects peaking different audience’s interests. Advertisers make attempts to strengthen the implied and unequivocal messages in trying to manipulate consumers’ decisions. Jib Fowles wrote an article called “Advertising’s Fifteen Basic Appeals,” explaining where he got his ideas about the appeals, from studying interviews by Henry A. Murray. Fowles gives details and examples on how each appeal is used and how advertisements can “form people’s deep-lying desires, and picturing states of being that individuals privately yearn for” (552).

Language in the Hands of Corporations: The Effects of Advertising In William Lutz’s essay “With These Words I Can Sell You Anything”, he emphasizes the words and phrases used by companies to make claims that appeal to the consumer, while simultaneously preventing the company from being legally bound to fulfill those claims. He advises to look out for words such as: help, more, virtually, new and improved, up to, acts, works, and like. Lutz claims “Every word in an ad is there for a reason; no word is wasted” (62), and that critical thinking is the only way to see what an advertisement is actually saying (63). For example, an ad by Delta for a bath faucet reads: “Save up to 32% more water per minute.

Advertisements are everywhere, on television, radio, social media, billboards, magazines, and even on yearbooks. On the other hand, would it not be nice if every advertisement an individual saw, read, or heard were actually true? Like using Axe body spray really did attract women or eating Snickers truly made one satisfied in seconds? Yet, most of the time the advertisements that seem too good to be true, actually are.

Introduction “The term ‘misleading advertisements, is an unlawful action taken by an advertiser, producer, dealer or manufacturer of a specific good or service to erroneously promote their product. Misleading advertising targets to convince customers into buying a product through the conveyance of deceiving or misleading articulations and statements. Misleading advertising is regarded as illegal in the United States and many other countries because the customer is given the indisputable and natural right to be aware and know of what product or service they are buying. As an outcome of this privilege, the consumer base is honored ‘truth in labeling’, which is an exact and reasonable conveyance of essential data to a forthcoming customer.”
