Cigarettes advertising

1- Advertising help tabacco companies to defend their interest due to it`s message. In the past  advertising show that probably if you smoke you were fashionable. Also, for example a lucky strike advertising says "smoke a lucky to feel your level best" and this, in a way, encourages you to start smoking.
2- In my opinion cigarettes advertising distorts the truth because, in the past, tobacco companies make propaganda saying that for example, if you smoke, you will feel better, or you are going to be in your best level, but the truth is that when you smoke you are killing your self slowly. I sayed "in the past" because nowadays companies like Marlboro in the cigarettes box put propaganda saying the illnesses that the cigarette cause.

In this picture we can see that a tobacco companie make a propaganda saying "Blow in her face and she will follow you anywhere". Their vested interest is that puting this in a propaganda encourages a man to smoke, because the message is that if you smoke probably you will have more girls, so they would sell more cigarettes.

In this image, the tobacco companies is showing that if you smoke their cigarette you will be happy and be lucky, so this also encourage people to buy cigarettes

Mad Men

During our thinking skills class, we saw an extract from an episode of "Mad Men",and we analize it.
1) We can infered that there is a vested interest from lucky strike owner so as to sell his product and without revealing all the bad diseases that it could cause. We also could see that Don had also an vested interest  with the idea of  revealing a good image from the company to the society and to show to his superiors how quick he was to produce new ideas and propose new proyects.
2) Because the peter`s idea didn`t deny that ciggarrates are dangerous for the health, and Dony`s idea was to show society elements from the cigarrates that dont have to do with the diseases and this was the nbest fot the company, also for the lucky strike owner and to society.
