The Synergy Effects of Advertising and Publicity THE SYNERGY EFFECT OF ADVERTISING AND PUBLICITY ON COUNTRY BRAND IN THE CASE OF AMERICANS’ ATTITUDES TOWARD SOUTH KOREA By CHANG DAE HAM A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ADVERTISING UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2007 1 © 2007 Chang Dae Ham 2 To my family 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First of all, I thank my chair, Dr. Chang-Hoan Cho for all the guidance he has given me, not only through the process of writing my thesis but throughout my entire master’s degree program. I am sure that my thesis, as well as my graduate education in general, has benefited from his endless energy and dedication to the study of advertising. In addition, I thank my committee members, Dr. Jorge Villegas and Dr. Marylin Roberts for their guidance, knowledge, and encouragement in their areas of expertise. I would also like to express my gratitude toward all of my professors in the master’s program of the Department of Advertising, the University of Florida. Next, I thank my fellow Korean students for their endless support and affection. Special thank go to Jong Woo Jun, Hyung Suk Lee, and Jong Moo Woo from the idea development through the completion of this study. I also thank for Korean doctoral students, Sang Won Lee, Jin Sung Park, Hee Jung Kim and Jun Heo. Without their encouragement and guidance, I might not complete my master’s course successfully. In addition, I thank my master’s program Korean classmates Mihyun Kang, Eun Soo Rhee, Wan Seop Jung, Yeu Seung Kim, and Mi Jung Kim. Without their friendship and help, my master’s program experience would not have been as memorable. Last but not least, I thank my wife, Yeai Lee Kim and my lovely daughter Yeon Soo Ham. I also specially thank to my mother, Jung Sook Choi, my sister Si Hyun Ham, and my brother Chang Kun Ham. Their encouragement, guidance, patients, and belief are a reflection of the achievements I have made throughout my life. Without my family, I would not have been able to accomplish all the things that I have, and would not be where I am today. For that I dedicate this thesis my family. I love them all very much. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ...............................................................................................................4 LIST OF TABLES...........................................................................................................................7 LIST OF FIGURES .........................................................................................................................8 ABSTRACT.....................................................................................................................................9 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION ..................................................................................................................11 2 LITERATURE REVIEW .......................................................................................................14 Synergy Effect of Integrated Marketing Communication (IMC) ...........................................14 Encoding Variability Theory...........................................................................................15 Selective Attention. .........................................................................................................15 Publicity and Its Theoretical Background ..............................................................................16 Agenda Setting ................................................................................................................16 Source Credibility............................................................................................................17 Country Image as a Brand ......................................................................................................18 Country of Origin Effect.........................................................................................................22 Dual-Mediation Effect............................................................................................................23 Elements Influencing Country Brand Image ..........................................................................24 3 METHODOLOGY .................................................................................................................26 Study 1.

  • Consumer Response to Negative Publicity: the Moderating Role of Commitment
    ROHINI AHLUWALIA, ROBERT E. BURNKRANT, and H. RAO UNNAVA* Even though negative information about brands and companies is widely prevalent in the marketplace, except for case studies, there has been no systematic investigation of how consumers process negative in^' formation about the brands they like and use. In the three studies in this research, the authors attempt to bridge this gap. The findings of the first and second studies provide a theoretical framework for understanding' how consumers process negative information in the marketplace. Commitment of the consumer toward the brand is identified as a moder- ator of negative information effects. In the third study, the authors use this theoretical framework to derive and test response strategies that compa- nies can use to counter negative publicity for consumers who are high and low in commitment toward the brand. s Consumer Response to Negative Publicity: The Moderating Role of Commitment Incidents of negative publicity are widely prevalent in the publicity literature has examined this problem at jsome marketplace, ranging from safety concerns with Valujet air- length but has not converged on a unifying theoretical lines to tainted beef from Hudson foods. Such information framework. One underlying assumption in this literature is can be devastating, resulting in major losses of revenue and that negative information is almost always devastating. For market share. A study by DDB Needham Worldwide example, the Merriam formula used to determine the impact (Advertising Age 1995) finds that negative publicity and of media exposure gives negative news quadruple weight how the company handles it are among the most important compared with positive news (Kroloff 1988).

  • The Right of Publicity Vs. the First Amendment: Will One Test Ever Capture the Starring Role?
    THE RIGHT OF PUBLICITY VS. THE FIRST AMENDMENT: WILL ONE TEST EVER CAPTURE THE STARRING ROLE? GLORIA FRANKE* I. INTRODUCTION America’s fascination with fame and celebrities is self-evident. In our culture, fame is used effectively to persuade, inspire, and inform the public in almost every aspect of our lives.1 Thus, for celebrities, fame has an inherent economic value, which they endeavor to enhance and protect through the relatively recent legal doctrine of the right of publicity. Broadly defined, the right of publicity is the “inherent right of every human being to control the commercial use of his or her identity.”2 Celebrities invoke this right to prevent the unauthorized commercial use of their names, likenesses, or other aspects of their identities in order to protect and control their valuable personas.3 The public’s fascination with celebrities has evolved into the ubiquitous use of stars to symbolize individual aspirations, group identities, and cultural values.4 Celebrity images are therefore important expressive * Class of 2006, University of Southern California Gould School of Law; B.A. 2002, University of California, Los Angeles. I would like to thank Dan Klerman, Jonathan Stern, and the Southern California Law Review, especially Lauren Eber, for their invaluable guidance and thoughtful suggestions. I would also like to thank my parents, Rich and Charlon Franke, my great aunt, Charlon Caskey, and my grandma and confidante, Gloria Carroll, for their continuous love and support and for always believing in me. Lastly, I would like to thank my sister Lauren and my great friends Kirsten, Tiffany, Allyn, Kristen, Lauren, and Laura for always being there for me and reminding me of what is truly important in life.
