Summary:
Woman sued the Toyota company because she taught they were stalking her. The actual truth is that the company was trying to do terror marketing on her. People who work in companies do anything to promote their company products. That type of promotion is called terror marketing. They think if they scare the customers they would latter laugh and buy the products. Now terror marketing has gone too far.For example boost mobile airs ads that have pigs eating pigs. This type of promotion is very noneffective. Just scaring people won't make them by your product.
Connections:
I recently saw the first MacDonald ad on YouTube. The ad featured this very weird guy having ketchup on his face and running around. Then at the end he eats the food. That was very scary maybe back at those days the ad wasn't scary but if they have an ad like that aired on T.V. that would freak the present people out. I also saw another ad but this one was a PSA made way back in the 90's. The PSA was called "Don't put it in your mouth." The ad featured some weird stuffed animals talking about things to not put things in your mouth. At the end lots of other typed animals sing a song about don't put anything in your mouth. it was back in those days that they had very weird ads that scare people.
Reflection:
I just heard about this way of promoting your product. I had saw many ads like this but I didn't know it was called "Terror marketing". I don't think terror marketing is very effective. Why would you have to scare the consumer or customer to buy your product? Why can't you do an effective way to promote your product like using an actress or any celeb to use the product and when people see it they will buy it. For example if a person who comes to me and scare me and then say buy my product I won't even think of buying it due to their very rude behavior. Besides maybe i will buy that product ever in my life.

Finacial problems for granite companies.
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/07/25/earlyshow/health/main4292754.shtml
Summary:People who own granite companies are experiencing financial problems do to health treats from doctors. Some doctors have told the media that people who have counter tops made from granite are health treats.They are saying that there is radiation in Granite that you can't see, feel, or smell but it has cancer causing diseases . However people who own those companies say that the radiation in granites aren't dangerous. For the past ten years granite has grown huge amount of popularity and is well known in peoples household all over the world.Currently people who build apartments, Condo, and penthouses include granite when they build them.Granite contains picocuries . Indications say 4 picocuries is the same risk of smoking half a cigarete pack.
Connections:For the past couple of years researchers have shown positive signs that granite has radiation that is dangerous but they did not get that much proof that is believable . The owners that own granite companies are still not giving up about their argument that granite is not a health treat and that their business is getting ruined.My parents also own a partnership company called Euro Can. We are also getting low profits because of this ridiculous health treat that some weird researchers found out. For about 12 years since we started this company we were getting lots of profits that made us export lots of granite from wholesalers. We don't have enough money to export many things.
Reflection: I also think that this new research is fake. The health physicists should research this thing again. How could you not feel radiation in granite. If you touch a granite oiece it iscold so how would it have radiation because radiation would be hot. If granite is radiation then mountain also have radiation to, So do we a have to not go to mountains cause it has radiation at it will give you cancer. Soon the acatual and offical news will come out then the world will get to know about granites power.
