In today's world, people come across many advertisements. advertisements are everywhere as far as people can see these days and people are affected by these environment in anyways. There are some opinions about this. Some people say that flood of advertisements is harmful and it affects adversely people's life. Others argue against this. i agree that too much advertising has bad influences on people's life.

In "hype" the author talks about how the advertisement are most prevalent and toxic of the mental pollution. There are more than 3000 marketing messages per a day on TV and the reality is that commercial advertising is increasing steadily and relentlessly. People see advertisements every where they can see like nozzle, bank, billboards, school, even supermarket. no more places are exempt from flood of advertisements and no one will be spared.

I believe that commercial advertising has some bad influences on people's life. people see TV commercial or advertisement at least 1 time a day. There is too much violence on TV commercial now days. these things are exposed to everybody even, young children. If young children watch these violent stuff on TV, they can imitate the violent behavior from TV commercial and it will make them think that it is right things to do in real life. For example, children who watch a lot of violence often fight with friends in school and they don't realize whether what they did is wrong or not. Sexual themes are also one of the bad influences of TV commercial.
Some TV commercial have sexual images or activities that are not good for young children. These images or activities may remain in their mind as they grow up and lead to become sexually active in a early age. Since they have a wrong information about sexual things, it can cause them to become pregnant or get infected with sexual disease. Therefore, I think that too much commercial advertising affects people's life
I hope more people to be aware of these bad influences and be careful from being steeped in an adverse effect.
