Advertisements
There are many reasons for both sides of the question, “should we have printed advertisement?”. Many people have strong views and feel that ads are nothing more than useless junk mail, while other people feel it is important source of information.
There are some reasons why we should have advertisement in newspaper and magazines. One reason is ads give us information about what is available. Looking at ads we can find out what is on sale and what is new in the market. This is an easy way of shopping. Another reason is that advertisement promotes business. When shop owners compete against each other the buyer saves money, more people come to their shops and they sell more goods.
On the other hand, some people argue that ads should not be put in newspapers and magazines for these various reasons. Firstly, ads cost the shopkeepers a lot of money to print onto paper. Also some people don`t like finding junk mail in their letter boxes. Ads also influence people to buy items they don`t need and can`t really afford. Ads use up a lot of space and a lot of effort has to be made to make the ads eye-catching.
After looking at both sides of issue, I think we should not have advertisements because they cost a lot of money and take up a lot of room in the papers. I don`t think I find some of them interesting. I mainly disagree because its junk mail.
