I do like to think that media has no influence on me, but then, i go to the supermarket and buy a lot of products based mainly on their packages and the idea that they LOOK like a good product.
I became aware of this media influence not long ago after i got married. I had seen that movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding like a year before, and then, on my first shopping experience with my wife, i choose WINDEX as our official window cleaner. I had never seen an advertising of Windex in my life, but the simple idiotic fact that the brideŽs father used it for everything, made me buy the bottle. I didn`t make the choice consciously and it wasnŽt but untill a week later that i saw the maid using the Windex, that i asked myself why the hell had i bought the friggin bottle, and came to realize that i had been caught.
