Business ethics in-class activity week 5

 5.1

(b)[Johnson] Advertising is unethical when it bullshits.

Q1. Once again, briefly describe the ad that you recently saw/heard; do you think that the ad was unethical in any of these two ways?

Q2. Do you think that there is any other way(s) in which advertising could be unethical?

After learning more on each position, which position seems more plausible? Why?
