(HORTATORY 8) What do you think about TV Commercial break ? Should you change your TV channel every time there are commmercials break??

     Nowadays you can see many commercials on TV. Why? Because the TV stations give chances to many companies to advertise their services and products to TV viewers. And it is a fact that every ten or fifteen minutes your favorite programs are disrupted by commercial breaks.
     But then, whether we like it or not, TV commercials contribute to consumerism. it means that people who see them intend to buy anything they see; though, they don't really need it.
     You know, there are some reasons why it happens. First, visual advertisements are presented in attractive ways. They show you how good the products or service are. They use very nice words that persuade people to buy or to use them.
     Then, since they are presented in visual ways, people will see what the products or services look like.Besides, models express how delighted they are with the products or services. They try to persuade the viewers that the products or services are very good. This, of course, influences people to use or consume the products or services.
     So change your TV channels every time there are commercials breaks. Or you can read a newspaper or magazine when TV stations broadcast them.
