Advertising and Ethics 1 Abstract Home to the United States' second-largest public transportation system, Chicago has a long history with economic, educational, and racial disparities amongst its 77 neighborhoods. Through content analysis, this study examines and categorizes 1,048 advertisements by their community demographics such as education, income, and race, to examine theme variance within the context of residential segregation on Chicago's rapid transit rail system. Keywords: advertising, ethics, outdoor advertising, residential segregation, marketing and society, Maslow’s Hierarchy, rapid transit Advertising and Ethics 2 Advertising and Ethics: Theme and Community Segregation on Chicago’s Rapid Transit System In The Current State of Advertising Ethics: Industry and Academic Perspectives, Minette E. Drumwright and Patrick E. Murphy’s research centers around the disconnect between industry and academy in terms of the approach towards advertising ethics. From an academic position, there has been controversy in the industry's handling the social communication power that comes with advertisement creation. Some scholars, like Jerry Kirkpatrick, believe that Randian theory is the underlying foundation that drives manipulation, deception, and coercion through advertising business decisions.
