You could ask that question of most any shopper at any retail outlet in the U.S. - - are they "victims" of advertising?
I wrote about this phenomena in my weekly column at Townhall Dot Com over the weekend.
Apparently, some people actually believe that "lower income folks" are "vicitims" of Walmart's advertising, such that they lose control of themselves and "have to get ahold of the item" that Walmart is advertising, and will "do anything to get it."
We'll talk about this tonight on The Austin Hill Show.
Also.......is "gay" the "new black?"
An article in the Washington Times suggests that the struggle for "gay rights" is the same as the struggle that black Americans have fought for decades, in pursuit of "civil rights."
And one particular gay rights activist quoted in the article, who happens to be both gay, and black, says that "black people are equal now, and gay people aren't."
Oh, really? Does a majority of black Americans agree with that statement?
