Native Advertising: A John Oliver Review

WARNING 

LANGUAGE CONTENT

IN VIDEO.

The Following Video by 

John Oliver on Last Week Tonight

on

+HBO Watch 

uploaded on +YouTube

In the interest of full disclosure

i am using a 

+ASUS 

computer

to write this +Blogger 

currently on the +Google Chrome Browser

As i sit having just drank my +コカ・コーラ  or that's +Coca-Cola 

And having eaten some +Chipotle Mexican Grill  with some +Bud Light  to follow after.

of course i paid using my +PayPal  that was connected to my 

+American Express that was linked to my +Bank of America account.

I had just come back from +Lollapalooza , i was not ready to go to

+Lollapalooza Chile just yet this year.

As i sat down on my +IKEA USA furniture i tuned in

on my 

+Samsung USA Television

and using my 

+Samsung Mobile USA #GalaxyS5 Phone with #Gear

i started to watch the show.

Having finished watching the show. i thought. this is wrong surely such institutions like +National Geographic  would not do this or  +National Geographic Education 

Do not tell me this is happening in  +Washington Post and +The New Yorker or even +The New York Times 

Is this really going on in +USA TODAY or +NBC News or +Los Angeles Times  i could totally understand if shows like +The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon  did this or  +Saturday Night Live 

If it was not for all the apps i had downloaded on +Google Play i never would have been able to  look up these things on my phone.

You do not think +Rolling Stone would do this? with say +Red Hot Chili Peppers and +Red Bull  or even +Rolling Stone Brasil and +Rolling Stone México 

and to think +New York Observer could  possibly be out there making some form of  "Native Advertisement" for  +The New York Public Library  or even the  +New York Film Academy  just be careful for the  Native ad from  +New York Life Insurance Company 

As if id fall for that "Native Advertisement"  i would have to insure all those things +Dolce & Gabbana gave me for free to advertise in my News Paper or the stuff from +Tommy Hilfiger and  +Bed Bath & Beyond 

I just find it difficult to believe places like +TechCrunch or +Pete Cashmore  from +Mashable  or +Android Authority  or +Robert Scoble would be  using some form of  "Native Advertisement" within there business Models and Blogs and sites like +Rackspace 

No way would shows like  +Hawaii Five-0 +NCIS and +NCIS: Los Angeles  use product placement with in there shows of say major Computer Models for Characters.

or would +BONES or +Castle or +New Girl  use a Rival Computer company to have product placement in the shows. +Toyota USA  *cough* "Prius"

And as i had decided to not fly +American Airlines but rather travel by +Amtrak back from Chicago i remembered 

what i saw in the +Chicago Tribune and something about the +Chicago Mayor's Office statement about +Chicago Blackhawks 

and how next to it was a advertisement for  +Chicago P.D. and +Chicago Fire and +Chicago White Sox  and i thought, dam, i just got fooled for some "native advertisement"

and i now remember looking around at people reading +Cosmopolitan.com both the +Cosmopolitan Italia and +Cosmopolitan UK versions also +PEOPLE and +WhoSay  and started to wonder just how much "Native Advertisement"

is out there

Well @illyal Great MV for One for the City Has anyone from @Power1051 or @1027KIISFM Seen this? http://t.co/SIddgk69nL

WAR: What is it Good For? Absolutely nothings, sing it again....

I was going to write something

But then i thought

why write something

when men and women 

of far greater importance than i have already

elegantly stated my case.

(most quotes found on Brainy Quote or Notable Quotes)

"The first casualty when war comes is truth."

Hiram Johnson/Aeschylus

"How is the world ruled and led to war? 

Diplomats lie to journalists 

and believe these lies when they see them in print."

Karl Kraus

"We shall never be able to remove suspicion and fear 

as potential causes of war until 

communication is permitted to 

flow, free and open, across international boundaries."

Harry S. Truman

"Everyone, when there's war in the air, 

learns to live in a new element: falsehood."

Jean Giraudoux

"One cannot wage war under present conditions 

without the support of public opinion, 

which is tremendously molded by 

the press and other forms of propaganda."

Douglas MacArthur

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, 

every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense 

a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, 

those who are cold and are not clothed."

Dwight D. Eisenhower

"Mankind must put an end to war 

before war puts an end to mankind."

John F. Kennedy

"Never think that war, no matter how necessary, 

nor how justified, is not a crime."

Ernest Hemingway

"I am tired and sick of war. 

Its glory is all moonshine. 

It is only those who have neither fired a shot 

nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded 

who cry aloud for blood, 

for vengeance, for desolation. 

War is hell."

William Tecumseh Sherman

"Can anything be stupider than 

that a man has the right to kill me 

because he lives on the other side of a river 

and his ruler has a quarrel with mine, 

though I have not quarreled with him?"

Blaise Pascal

"Wars are poor chisels 

for carving out peaceful tomorrows."

Martin Luther King, Jr.

"I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, 

only as one who has seen its brutality, 

its futility, its stupidity."

Dwight D. Eisenhower

"There was never a good war, 

or a bad peace."

Benjamin Franklin

"Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. 

We know more about war that we know about peace, 

more about killing that we know about living."

Omar N. Bradley

"Anyone who has ever looked 

into the glazed eyes of a soldier

 dying on the battlefield 

will think hard before starting a war."

Otto von Bismarck

"What a cruel thing war is... 

to fill our hearts with hatred 

instead of love for our neighbors."

Robert E. Lee

"Man has no right to kill his brother. 

It is no excuse that he does so in uniform: 

he only adds the infamy of servitude 

to the crime of murder."

Percy Bysshe Shelley

"There is no instance of a nation 

benefiting from prolonged warfare."

Sun Tzu

"Older men declare war. 

But it is the youth that must fight and die."

Herbert Hoover

"If we don't end war, 

war will end us."

H. G. Wells

"War will exist until that distant day 

when the conscientious objector 

enjoys the same reputation and prestige 

that the warrior does today."

John F. Kennedy

"In peace, sons bury their fathers. 

In war, fathers bury their sons."

Herodotus

"Only the dead have seen the end of the war."

George Santayana

"War is only a cowardly escape 

from the problems of peace."

Thomas Mann

"War is a defeat for humanity."

Pope John Paul II

"What is human warfare but just this; 

an effort to make the laws of God and nature 

take sides with one party."

Henry David Thoreau

"Wars have never hurt anybody 

except the people who die."

Salvador Dali

"In modern war... 

you will die like a dog for no good reason."

Ernest Hemingway

"War remains the decisive human failure."

John Kenneth Galbraith

"All wars are follies, 

very expensive and 

very mischievous ones."

Benjamin Franklin

"We have war when 

at least one of the parties to a conflict 

wants something more 

than it wants peace."

Jeane Kirkpatrick

"An unjust peace is better than a just war."

Marcus Tullius Cicero

"War is the unfolding of miscalculations."

Barbara Tuchman

"The direct use of force 

is such a poor solution to any problem,

 it is generally employed only by 

small children and large nations."

David Friedman

"You can no more win a war 

than you can win an earthquake."

Jeannette Rankin

"My attitude to peace 

is rather based on the Burmese definition of peace - 

it really means removing all the negative factors 

that destroy peace in this world. 

So peace does not mean 

just putting an end to violence or to war, 

but to all other factors that threaten peace, 

such as discrimination, 

such as inequality, 

poverty."

Aung San Suu Kyi

"My father was very disappointed by war and fighting. 

And he thought language could help us 

out of cycles of revenge and animosity. 

And so, as a journalist, 

he always found himself asking lots of questions 

and trying to gather information. 

He was always very clear to underscore the fact 

that Jewish people and Arab people 

were brother and sister."

Naomi Shihab Nye

"Wanton killing of innocent civilians is terrorism, 

not a war against terrorism."

Noam Chomsky

"Even today we raise our hand against our brother... 

We have perfected our weapons, 

our conscience has fallen asleep, 

and we have sharpened our ideas 

to justify ourselves as if it were normal 

we continue to sow destruction, pain, death. 

Violence and war lead only to death."

Pope Francis

"No country can act wisely simultaneously

 in every part of the globe 

at every moment of time."

Henry A. Kissinger

"Where the stakes are the highest, 

in the war on terror, 

we cannot possibly succeed without 

extraordinary international cooperation. 

Effective international police actions 

require the highest degree of intelligence sharing, 

planning and collaborative enforcement."

Barack Obama

"War may sometimes be a necessary evil.

 But no matter how necessary, 

it is always an evil, never a good. 

We will not learn how to live together in peace 

by killing each other's children."

Jimmy Carter

"I refuse to accept the view that 

mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight 

of racism and war

 that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood 

can never become a reality... 

I believe that 

unarmed truth and unconditional love 

will have the final word."

Martin Luther King, Jr.

"War is the greatest plague that can afflict humanity, 

it destroys religion, 

it destroys states, 

it destroys families. 

Any scourge is preferable to it."

Martin Luther

"You cannot simultaneously 

prevent and prepare for war."

Albert Einstein

"Unless and until something concrete is done

 about addressing the Israeli-Palestinian issue 

you won't get a real start on 

the war against terrorism."

Bob Hawke

"I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."

ALBERT EINSTEIN
