Go online and do a Google image [and video, specifically Flintstones] search for “old cigarette ads.” What claims were made about the beneficial effects of smoking? How are medical professionals used in the ads to sell cigarettes? What, if any, statements are made by cigarette companies regarding the dangers of smoking tobacco?”
In your paper, discuss the above questions and other observations you made while looking at old print and video ads. Analyze the ads using the Symbolic Interactionist perspective. That means to take the parts of the theory and apply them to the ads. Please include links to the ads you discuss in your paper.
