Reaction to PBS site
This site is able to point out the major tricks of advertising in a fun way so that young kids can gain awareness without becoming bored. Although the site doesn't necessarily make one an expert about how advertising really works, it does a good job of giving one enough knowledge to protect himself from media tricks, such as what is actually sold in boxes of toys. The section about the cost of clothes was effective as well, as many of the expensive clothes looked just like the cheaper ones. I also liked the section where it showed where all the money gained from buying a product goes. It seems crazy that only 50 cents of 50 dollars goes to the actual maker of a pair of jeans. I think the site does a good job of giving the public helpful information.
