I know we had already talked about the Carl's Jr commercials in class, but I had always noticed why they use the women they do. I never really realized that I was analyzing their technique, but I did in fact know that the sexy lady was just to get the attention of the people. Men might want to go and expect to see that same lady working the cashier. While women believe that eating a Carl's Jr burger will make them busty, flawless, and curvy. The reality of this, however, is that the women is only being used to make people want to make a visit to their local Carl's Jr. The technique they are using is to increase their sales and popularity, and many ads do that now. How effective is it?
What does this have to do with the fast food burger restaurant you might ask... Nothing. I have ate at Carl's Jr various times and look nothing like this. If anything, I'm fatter and greasier. Don't be fooled by the sexy hot women. They have absolutely nothing to do with the burger.
Nelly--You have good points and ideas in your new entries. Good. Keep digging at analysis and using the rhetorical triangle to present information. Don't forget to set up your topic and entry.
