Summary:
In " Virtual Popularity Isn't Cool-It's Pathetic" by Ian Daly, he explains his reasoning why virtual popularity isn't cool. One of his examples is when employers go to hire a lot of them look you up on the internet, and when they search your name your pictures from Facebook pop up. They can see every picture you have put up and if they don't agree with the lifestyle you portray on the internet they can easily resign their job offers. Ian Dale goes on to say that you don't need to put every aspect of your life on Facebook because everyone doesn't need to know everything about your life and if they did they could just call you.
Response:
I agree with what Ian Daly is saying. People today don't realize that putting everything you do in your social media accounts can hurt you. Even if it's not on your page personally and your still tagged in it your employers can find it and it can potentially hurt you. Colleges and employers really look at your social media accounts to see what type of person they are going to bring into their work or school and if you have inappropriate things you can jeopardize everything. So I agree with Daly when he says being cool on the internet isn't actually cool it can affect a lot of your life.

Summary:
In the women's women section of Steve Craigs article "Men's men amd Wome's women" a weight watchers commercial
is presented showing a young thin woman in a revealing bathing suit, she oroceeds to say " I hate diets... but i lose weight fast on weight watchers new program" then the camera proceeds to a the same woman in a different setting who "hates starving herself" and proceeds to promote weight watchers and how " with their fast and flexible program i don't have to" . The setting continues changing with her saying more positive things about the Weight Watchers program and how easy it is to lose weight while using Weight Watchers.
Response:
While reading this ad I predicted what was going.to happen through out the ad, tje woman was going to continue saying how "easy it is to lose weight with Weight Watchers" While the woman in this was being relatable in the sense that all women can lose weight as easy as she could on Weight Watchers I feel it's a little unreliale. With all these commercials saying how "easy" it is to lose weight, i feel like its unreliable especially with the women they get to play in these ads who are usually fit with abs, which you usually don't get fit with only weight Watchers, you usually have to exercise to get those results
