97 Words1 Page

I agree with you when you state that the ad has a didactic and strong tone. The CDC commercial intentionally portrays shocking content to urge people to quit smoking. According to the CDC, cigarette smoking causes more than 480,000 deaths annually in the United States, out of which 42,000 deaths result from secondhand smoking. The average life expectancy of nonsmokers is 10 years higher than smokers. Furthermore, the CDC warns that if American teenagers continue to smoke cigarette at the current rate, 5.6 million teenagers could die at an early age from diseases caused by cigarette smoking.

    During this time period, anti-tobacco activists were just starting to make claims that cigarettes were bad for your health and because older people were already hooked on the products, the cigarette companies needed to convince the new smokers to either start or to continue smoking. Therefore they used a member of society who everyone listens to and trust for health advice, a doctor, to persuade readers to start smoking Camel cigarettes. I believe that this advertisement does successfully appeal to the audience because if what is stopping people from buying cigarettes is the health risks, then the doctors endorsing the product eliminates that risk. Since Camel is also the brand most trusted by doctors, the audience is more likely to purchase from that brand over
