Name Calling or Innuendo  This type of ad creates a negative attitude by hinting or implying that you “wouldn’t want to buy, try, eat, or wear that!”  Looks down upon another company by calling them names or saying negative things about the competition  Don’t buy a gas- guzzling, gigantic SUV—the VW Beetle is just right for you!”
