Favorite Blog of 3rd Quarter

This past quarter our American Studies teachers instructed us to write blog posts that had the intention of relating to class discussions and class themes. One such post I created that I believe accomplished that task is "Super Bowl Ads: Are They Worth it?" This post related the class discussion of advertisement's development America, as it included a commercial from this past Super Bowl, and applied it to the theme of advertising. The post raises a new question regarding advertisement, which is whether or not the increasing costs of advertisement, in particular commercials, pays off in the long run. In other words, are companies able to generate profits despite the expensive rates of $2.6 million for 30 seconds on a T.V. spot for the Super Bowl?
