Marknaden för barn är lukrativ och omsätter årligen mycket pengar. Barn ses som tre marknader i en; de spenderar sina pengar på den existerande marknaden, påverkar föräldrarnas köpvanor och kan genom sina erfarenheter bli trogna ett märke i framtiden. Därför är det viktigt för företag att göra reklam för sina produkter och tjänster och teknikerna för att fånga uppmärksamhet är många, till exempel produktplaceringar. Reklam finns idag på många platser i vårt samhälle och barn utsätts dagligen för den. Syftet med detta examensarbete var att genom en litteraturstudie undersöka hur mycket av reklamens säljande budskap barn förstår och frågeställningen som knöts till syftet var: I vilket kognitivt och socialt stadium förstår barn reklamens säljande syfte? På grund av variationer i de valda vetenskapliga artiklarnas resultat var det svårt att göra några generaliseringar och studien gav inget entydigt svar på i vilket kognitivt och socialt stadium barn förstår reklamens säljande syfte..

Advertisement is something that surrounds us in our everyday life. The two terms marketing and advertising are closely linked together and often considered as the same thing, although they are not.

The first company to send TV-commercial was the American company NBC, it was in the year of 1941. In Sweden, TV-Commercials were first shown in 1987/88. TV 4 was the first channel to send commercial in Swedish television.TV has the advantage of showing both sound and picture, which makes TV the strongest channel of communication to mediate a message between a company and the consumer. Although TV-commercial is the most expensive choice to mediate a message, it is also the most effective one. (Persson, 1993)Almost everyone is exposed to TV-commercial daily.

Many media buyers annually spend money on advertising which will not be of benefit to their own brand; the fact that consumers confuse from which brand they have heard or seen Commercials, comes as news to nobody. The phenomenon of media confusion has however earned much less attention. As a greater part of the total marketing budget is being spent on the media investments, on behalf of the actual advertising production, the more interesting it turns out to maximize the effects of the media expenses. The search for optimization is somewhat practised today by brand managers who are daringly adding a few more media channels to support their TV-campaigns. Buying ad space in TV is nevertheless much more expensive than the radio equivalent.

Reklam för olika produkter och organisationer möter oss varje dag bland annat genom tidningar, radio, TV eller på vägen till jobbet. De TV-sända reklamfilmerna som avbryter i lördagsfilmen eller under nyhetssändningen är till för att påverka oss TV-tittare.

I vår tid omges vi av reklam nästan överallt. I hemmet till exempel i form av TV-reklam, dagstidningsreklam och direktreklam. På stan till exempel i form av utomhusreklam och flygblad. I SOM-undersökningen 2005 visade det sig att endast 14 procent av de tillfrågade hade en positiv inställning till TV-reklam. Om det är så få som uppskattar TV-reklam, hur ska en reklamfilm utformas för att fler ska bli positiva?Syftet är att undersöka hur medie- och kommunikationsstudenter upplever storybaserade respektive informativa reklamfilmer ur ett retoriskt perspektiv.

International media groups and the freedom of speech are two issues that have been questioned during the last years when large media groups control a large amount of public-oriented information. The masters thesis at hand considers three debates that illuminate Bonniers and AB Mariebergs hereinafter referred to as the Bonnier Media Group positions on the media market. The objective of such a study is to establish in the face of the theory on hegemonia, for example from which factors the media actors deduce their argumentation when discussing the above-mentioned topic and the meaning of such a discussion in our time. The thesis also discusses whether freedom of speech and free opinion are affected by the increasing power of the Bonnier Media Group and if they, as a result, have diminished their own cultural and liberal assets, features that are firmly associated with the company. I conclude that various features have come to change the media market during the last years.
