This source comes from CBS news web article and clams that as adolescence that
watch sporting events on TV are highly influenced by athletes like food ball and
basketball players. The article also states that it is almost impossible to new a
football game without watching a Gatorade commercial or a pizza commercial with
Pait Manning. The article then goes on to state how these athletes make money by
this type of advertisement. This source helps me define my issue because children
look up to role models and the athletes they use are being used as a way to
advertise fast food or unhealthy snakes.
