Marketers have used celebrities from time to time to endorse their products. A well-known celebrity can at the very least draw the consumers" attention to a particular product or brand, as when comedian Jerry Seinfeld appears in American Express ads. Or the celebrity" mystique can transfer over to the brand—supermodel Cindy Crawford in an ad for Revlon"s Beautifying Shampoo. Or the celebrity"s expertise and authority transfers to the brand—Michael Jordan endorsing Nike"s Air Jordan basketball shoes.
The choice of celebrity is critical. The celebrity should have a high positive affect and high appropriateness to the product. Sylvester Stallone has high recognition and has high a positive affect but he might not be appropriate for advertising a World Peace Conference.
Athletes are a particularly effective endorsing group, especially for athletic products, beverages, and apparel. Many famous athletes are well-known endorsers for a great variety of products or commodities.
One of advertisers" main worries is that their celebrity endorsers will get mixed up in a notorious scandal or in an embarrassing situation. There was the case of Michael Jackson—Pepsi dropped dramatically in the wake of his child-molestation charges. When actor James Garner encountered well-publicized heart problems, his illness did not reflect well on the beef industry, which he had been promoting.
Perhaps due to the frequency of celebrity scandals, insurers are now offering to protect advertisers against such risks. One insurance company has begun offering advertisers "death, disablement and disgrace" insurance to cover the failings and foibles of their celebrity endorsers.
Alternatively, advertisers can choose not to use real, live fallible humans to endorse their products, but opt for "spokes characters" instead. For example, Owens-Coring Company has used the Pink Panther for nearly 15 years to endorse its pink-colored insulation products. Images projected by cartoon characters and beloved animals don"t deviate from one moment to the next, and companies have more control over them.

问答题We have known the elephants, the greatest land mammal of them all—highly sensitive, intelligent, family-oriented, big-toothed creatures—for a very long time, and they have known us. It has been a tortuous relationship, and one that is still evolving. (56)
We have looked up to elephants as gods, but killed them for their ivory, and captured and enslaved them to be our beasts of burden in work and war, and for our entertainment.
Earlier this month, Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus announced that it had decided to phase elephants out of its public spectacles, retiring its remaining forty-three working elephants to a park it owns in Florida, where twenty-nine elephants already live. (57)
The decision follows years of pressure from animal-rights groups, and is part of a trend that has been gathering strength for years.
Most other circuses in the United States and Western Europe have stopped using the animals because the routine use of prods, cages, and chains, both to transport elephants and to force their obedience, has come to be seen by growing numbers of people, including circus goers, as cruel.
The Ringling news is striking. (58)
In our gradual awakening to the idea that we must protect the elephant from enslavement and cruelty, it may be possible to hear echoes of other dawnings of conscience.
As someone born at a time of widespread consensus that human slavery was one of history"s most despicable and shameful practices, (59)
I"ve always been intrigued by the realization that, during the life of my great-great-grandfather, there were a significant number of otherwise intelligent and sensitive white Americans and Europeans who apparently did not see it that way.
And then I recall the excitement that I felt at going to the circus as a child. There were at least flashes of discomfort when I watched as trainers used prods to make elephants hold each other"s tails with their trunks and sway back and forth to music, or shouted commands for them to kneel, to put their bottoms in the air. But, in the end, (60)
the spectacle, the noisy excitement of the crowds, and the presence of grownups all signaled an acceptance of things as they were, and one"s awareness of the elephants" humiliation became somehow less acute.
As an adult, it has been easier to perceive the treatment of circus elephants for what it is: cruel.
