RESPOND TO PEER BELOW

Culture jamming is defined as the creation of images or practices that force viewers to question the status quo sometimes referred as Guerrilla Advertising or Guerrilla Communication. “It is the practice of disrupting the mundane of everyday life and the status quo with surprising and often comical or satirical acts or artworks (Cole, 2018).” This practice became popular by the anti-consumerist organization Adbusters.

The Adbusters website is creative and retro with added art that is comical and unorthodox. The organization is a Canadian media foundation that was founded in 1989 by Bill Schmalz and Kalle Lasn . They are not-for-profit, anti-consumerists, and pro-environment organization (Word finder, 2019).

Cultural imperialism can act as a form as advertising, for example, a brand becoming a symbol of globalization (Cambridge University, 2019).

REPSPOND TO THIS STUDENT

A popular Hollywood film that depicted the cold war, which was released

in 1982 is called “Firefox. The actor Clint Eastwood plays a retired Air

Force fighter pilot who has to sneak into the Soviet Union to steal a

jet fighter that was codenamed Firefox. The plane was six times the

speed of sound and could be operated by the pilot’s thought commands.

After watching the trailer, the american people in the movie were

scared. They were scared that this super weapon would destroy lives and

they were worried that Eastwood would not be able to get the plane.

Medias biases were that American and its people would be okay and the

job would get done.
