"Miss Turkey on turkey burger commercial."
While I was searching for a
commercial, which I can use it for my next rhetoric and civic life post, I
found another ridiculously funny commercial that was made by Carls Jr. The
company continues its tradition of rhetorical, over the top food porn
commercial (That’s what my dad said). It puts Miss Turkey in a bikini. Yeah,
the real Miss Turkey, who held the title since April 1, 2010. With the tiara
and red dress, a beauty queen nibbles on a burger while strutting along the poolside
in a recent new Carl's Jr turkey burger.
During the commercial, Miss
Turkey drops her red pageant gown to reveal a bikini that had tiny turkey
burgers all over. The narrator says "We had fabric custom-printed with the
image of our new Charbroiled Turkey Burger… and then had it made into a
bikini."
In this commercial, the Rhetoric
is about persuading customer to buy their turkey burger. They start out with
the turkey burger. For people to remember it, they hired Miss Turkey. So they
can also remember Miss Turkey, they put her in a bikini. That bikini had turkey
burger patterns on it and that goes back to the turkey burger. It makes a
circle, starting and ending with the main product, the turkey burger. This
turns out to emphasize on what the commercial is trying to sell: the burger.
Oh,
and don’t forget how good looking Miss Turkey is. (I know you loved it too :) )
Its crazy how almost every commercial now has some sort of sex symbol related or involved in it to sell a product. It makes you wonder what our society is coming to if everything we watch and thing about is girls half naked in turkey burger bathing suits! But I guess your rhetoric explains how the world is changing and how rhetorical arguments and situations must change as well.
