If you’ve seen Undercover Brother, you may comprehend what I’m saying, but for those who haven’t seen it, instead of explaining it using expletives and getting DQ'd, here’s the whole scene long story short; if you say Good Morning, you’re wanting to kill me first thing in the morning.

Defined by the American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA), “Direct-to-consumer advertising (DTCA) is the promotion directly to potential patients of prescription drugs through newspaper, magazine, television, and internet marketing” (1). This type of direct communication allows drug manufacturers to take advantage of its consumer’s lack of medical background and knowledge by promoting products directly to consumers in ways that could manipulate them.

During this time, films became widely popular. Movies, such as Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980), Back to the Future (1985), and Ghostbusters (1984) became instant blockbusters among 15 to 25 year old white males.
