"Best Travel Bargain By Far TWA to California"

I agree that the main message here is that now everyone can afford to fly. They are not really bias toward any one gender in this ad but, it is directed toward the middle working class. During this time women were not really working but still living at home while their husbands were out on business trips. This is not a luxurious plane ride and it does not create the sense of vacation but strictly business. They do attempt to create an image that is equal for men and women but realistically there would be much more males on board than females especially for it being geared towards work.
ReplyDeleteI feel like the ad is giving false advertisement because it is saying that TWA can go to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Kansas City, St Louis, and Pittsburgh, when if you look where it says, "Regular schedules know when you leave and when you arrive…”, you can see that only three places were scheduled with leaving and arrival times, and the other three weren't.
