The Merchants of Cool

Is movie was a wow at the beginning because it tells you how much teens spent last year. It said that teens spent 100 billion and 50 more with parents. It is the credit cards and massive amounts of money that kids, teens get from their parents because their parents feel guilty. Guilty that they don't send that much time with their kids and in return they let them do whatever they want and spend how every much money they want too.
You as a person sees 3000 advertisements a day and are drawing into what they are selling even though you don't like it. Its all the bright lights, interesting slogan's and how they put their ad out there. You get caught up in all the rave about the product. How you will be able to use it and how cool you'll be if you get the product.
The industry has grown so much that they had to hire people specifically to find whats "COOL" in the world today. It is called cool hunting and it is to find cool or the new cool personality in teens. They find out new fashions, shows, movies, music, and everything else that teens love and like at that time. But when they find a new "cool" it is not cool no more. So it is a conscious process.
The biggest industry out there is Sprite because of how they put their product out their. They use music to reach out to the teens. It is mostly Hip Hop and that is why their product sells. They get all the big rappers, singers, and musicians to do concerts and sprite sponsors all of it. They get to know what the teens want and use that as a weapon and in return the teens buy their product.
Show TV industry and other corporations all lick together to sell all their products. How they brain wash the public that their product is the best one to buy. They use TV to get all little kids into buying toys in the first place. They brainwash all of us into getting and wanting their product . How watching their commercials on TV makes us wonder and than want.
We all get sucked into it too and can't deny it and buy the goods.
Then their is the TV shows that we all watch and start to copy and want to be just like the actors in the show. They started to use sex as a selling concept and it worked. They got more ratings and more people became interested in the show. It was a very big influence on girls and some boys. They all wanted to be like the people on TV and went to extreme measures to be like the actors. To to be as pretty and skinny as the people on TV and movies.
Media has so much to do with how society is today and how we act or do things. We all are in the system some how and can't live without it.
