Turow shows how advertisers exploit differences between consumers based on income, age, gender, race, marital status, ethnicity, and lifestyles. "An important book for anyone wanting insight into the advertising and media worlds of today. In plain English, Joe Turow explains not only why our television set is on, but what we are watching. The frightening part is that we are being watched as we do it."-Larry King "Provocative, sweeping and well made . . . Turow draws an efficient portrait of a marketing complex determined to replace the 'society-making media' that had dominated for most of this century with 'segment-making media' that could zero in on the demographic and psychodemographic corners of our 260-million-person consumer marketplace."-Randall Rothenberg, Atlantic Monthly 606 $aAdvertising$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aTarget marketing$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAdvertising$xSocial aspects 615 0$aTarget marketing 676 $a659.1/042 676 $a659.1042 700 $aTurow$b Joseph$0801217 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455330403321 996 $aBreaking up America$92028903 997 $aUNINA
