Here is a nice example of ad sneakiness, found on fail blog.

Most ads are much better at concealing their truth, than this, however this clearly explains what ad producers like to do.

At first glance, that ad says this: Our loss weight tea will lose you that much weight!

However, the ad simply says this person lost that much WITH the weight loss tea. That means that she could also have been doing any number of things, from liposuction, to giving birth. (Obviously the fat was from a baby.)

Depending upon “interpretation” (Word bending), Weight loss tea, can be anything between a magic potion that actually does induce weight loss, or a Japanese ritual tea that people would drink to celebrate weight loss. It could even mean that the particular flavor of tea was drunk on the day that someone broke the biggest loser all time record!

Which means, that the weight loss tea could actually be some store brand, or water with nasty leaves in it.

In other words, it could be an ad for regular tea, made to look more appealing by making it imply weight loss.

Never. Trust. Ads. (Unless the ad council made them.)
