description: This updated second edition offers a refined theoretical framework, new pedagogical features, and expansion of advertising images and their analysis. Controversially, the second edition highlights preliminary evidence, contrary to popular opinion, that media sex and violence do not always sell. The new edition reviews these and other recent research findings. Other updates for this edition --an evaluation of advertisements following the 9-11 terrorist attacks --more on media violence and its nexus to youth violence --new discussion of the use of advertising in law enforcement --introduces the concept hybridizing (combinations of two types of advertising) --many new ads representing cultural changes since the first edition
