Selling Empowerment: A Critical Analysis of Femvertising Alexandra Rae Hunt Boston College Senior Communication Honors Thesis Dr. Michael Serazio Spring 2017 ii Abstract This thesis explores the impact of femvertising on representations of women, its relation to and conversation with third wave feminism as a growing social movement, and its extension of a brand’s dedication to corporate social responsibility. Feminist critical discourse analysis from a third wave perspective was used to conduct qualitative visual and textual analysis of three different femvertising campaigns: Dove’s “Campaign for Real Beauty,” Always’ “Like a Girl” campaign, and Pantene’s “Shine Strong” campaign. Although femvertising diversifies the representation of women and girls in the media by challenging restrictive beauty standards and damaging rhetoric, it fails to accurately represent or reference the third wave movement by shying away from the feminist label and omitting mentions of intersectionality, sexuality, and storytelling. In addition, in order for femvertising to seem genuine rather than manipulative, the campaign must reflect a sustained effort on behalf of the brand to empower women and girls through philanthropic efforts and organizational partnerships.

  • Why Google Dominates Advertising Markets Competition Policy Should Lean on the Principles of Financial Market Regulation

    Why Google Dominates Advertising Markets Competition Policy Should Lean on the Principles of Financial Market Regulation

    Why Google Dominates Advertising Markets Competition Policy Should Lean on the Principles of Financial Market Regulation Dina Srinivasan* * Since leaving the industry, and authoring The Antitrust Case Against Face- book, I continue to research and write about the high-tech industry and competition, now as a fellow with Yale University’s antitrust initiative, the Thurman Arnold Pro- ject. Separately, I have advised and consulted on antitrust matters, including for news publishers whose interests are in conflict with Google’s. This Article is not squarely about antitrust, though it is about Google’s conduct in advertising markets, and the idea for writing a piece like this first germinated in 2014. At that time, Wall Street was up in arms about a book called FLASH BOYS by Wall Street chronicler Michael Lewis about speed, data, and alleged manipulation in financial markets. The controversy put high speed trading in the news, giving many of us in advertising pause to appre- ciate the parallels between our market and trading in financial markets. Since then, I have noted how problems related to speed and data can distort competition in other electronic trading markets, how lawmakers have monitored these markets for con- duct they frown upon in equities trading, but how advertising has largely remained off the same radar. This Article elaborates on these observations and curiosities. I am indebted to and thank the many journalists that painstakingly reported on industry conduct, the researchers and scholars whose work I cite, Fiona Scott Morton and Aus- tin Frerick at the Thurman Arnold Project for academic support, as well as Tom Fer- guson and the Institute for New Economic Thinking for helping to fund the research this project entailed.

    Pricing the Eyes of Passersby Text Only

    Pricing the Eyes of Passersby: The Commodification of Audience Attention in U.S. Public Spaces, 1890-1920 Zoe Sherman University of Massachusetts Amherst Abstract This paper explains the growth of the U.S. advertising industry around 1900 by showing how advertisers constructed institutions and used government to convert audience attention into a form of tradable property. They transformed the haphazard business of getting advertisements before the eyes of the public into a matter of commodity exchange by standardizing access to audience attention and controlling competition. Through the process of standardization, advertising professionals found ways to retain a share of the surplus for their own purposes. My empirical work on billposting illuminates the central role that the pursuit of monopoly played in constructing a commodity form of access to pedestrians’ gazes. Monopolist billposters set prices in proportion to the population of likely viewers rather than in proportion to their costs and justified the higher rates by improving the reliability of the service they offered. Even when other forms of media advertising limited the monopoly power of outdoor advertisers, the success in establishing regularized routines and a legal regimen enabled billboard, and other, advertisers to buy the eyes of passersby. 1 Introduction In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, advertisers and the advertising professionals1 who served them successfully pushed the transformation of audience attention into a form of tradable property. At the beginning of this period, getting advertisements before the eyes of the public was a haphazard affair. By the end of the period, advertising in periodical media, outdoor advertising such as billboards, and direct mail marketing had all gone through a process of standardization, allowing advertisers to, with a reasonably high degree of specificity and confidence, purchase access to the attention of desired audiences.
