Analysis Of All American Girl Commercial
Heroin is a dangerous and highly addictive narcotic that has become the greatest drug threat on the East Coast.

I originally chose this book to inform myself on drugs in today’s society and what influences the use of them. After reading the book, I was able to understand what causes drug use and how what we learn by the media is somewhat incorrect. This memoir is truly well written and includes a unique way of writing that continuously keeps the reader active and engaged in the…

    Heroin Addiction and Recovery

    Heroin addiction is a very serious problem in America and it will continue to get worse until the war on drugs is won. But until then, addicts need all the help and support they can get to stop using this drug. Addicts should be encouraged to seek help, not ridiculed and cast out. Detoxification is the first step in getting off heroin, methadone will control the cravings, and the 12-step program will help ensure the addict has the support they need to stay clean and sober. If society, as a whole, works together to eradicate this affliction and support those that suffer from it, this problem can and will be ended.…

    America's Next Top Model Ads Analysis

    Covergirl, Seventeen magazine, Sears,— just to name a few, these are only some brands that have been placed or integrated into the plot of the eighth season of America's Next Top Model. Since technology allows viewers to avoid ads, product placement is the paid product message targeted at influencing movie or TV audiences through the unobtrusive and planned access of a branded product into a movie or TV. (Tiny M. Lowrey, L.J Shrum, John A. McCarty, 2004) Product integration is a similar concept except that the product is used as a part of the program. According to Shrum, it is a technique by "weaving the product into the ‘fabric' of the program". (Tiny M. Lowrey, L.J Shrum, John A. McCarty, 2004) These are the recent channels producers have exploited to vie for consumers' attention today.…

    Montana Drug Abuse

    The Montana Meth project portrayed a documentary to the public which shows the general public how meth can trap a user in a never ending cycle of addiction. In the documentary one woman stated, "It's all you can think about, you don't have any other priorities in life. If you're doing this stuff, you don't have aspirations to be anything but a user. That's all you end up to be," (Montana Meth). In that same documentary a different user states, "People don't understand how we can get addicted to this but I feel so good right now, better than any sober person has ever felt in their entire life" (Montana…

    Claire Sterk Fast Lives

    In Claire’s Sterk’s book, “Fast Lives: women who used crack cocaine”, she uses information from observation, conversations, interviews and group discussions to explain how using crack affects active users. She also shows how they started using, how they survived, how they developed and maintained relationships with friends and family, and how they were mothers and drug users at the same time. In addition, Sterk started Project FAST, the Female Atlanta Study to identify the impact of drug use patterns on lives of active female users. In this study, most of the women’s stories are similar but yet different in many ways to each other. While curiosity and peer pressure caused these women to experiment with drugs, others were introduced to it by friends. While prostitution was frequently used to support their drug usage, many other women participated in the drug business or credit card fraud or shoplifted. Another similar thing they share is that they knew the negative images of crack cocaine users. They are expressed more negatively than their male counterparts as “being a drug user and a woman are generally seen as incompatible social roles” (Sterk, 4). As one of the goals of this study was to have a greater understanding of the lives of female crack cocaine users, Sterk had intentions to challenge the popular perception of crack cocaine addicts and I believe she did not succeeded in her pursuit.…

    Prescription Drug Satire

    “Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate, so we can buy things we don’t need.” (Palahnuik, Fight Club) We have been forced our whole lives to believe that what we see on commercials and what we hear from higher figures of the media are of complete truth, when in actuality it is all in an attempt to completely regress the once strong state of mind. Prescription medication being one of them has been commercialized as a cure to the non-existent problems of modern day Americans, when in turn is only the downfall of their body, minds, and in whole…our society. A stand needs to be taken against the portrayal of legalized drugs in our country and the doctors and administrations enforcing them need to be opposed.…

    Antidote Naloxone

    here has been an ever present threat within the United States that continues to grow at an alarming rate by the day; that threat is substance addiction. Nearly 38,000 deaths were linked to overdoses in 2009; that exceeds the total number of traffic violations for that year (“U.S Heroin Crisis”).
