Research Log

My paper highlights the effects of fast food companies marketing to children.  Therefore, I need books that have information/support the claim that marketing to children is wrong.

Schlosser, Eric. Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal. New York: Houghton Mifflin Company, 2001. Print.

Fast food nation is all about the negative effect of the fast food industry, on our economy, on our health, on our environment, and even on our kids.  There is a whole section about the companies targetting children and I can definitely use this information in my paper.  I can also use the other information the book provides because it definitely relates to the topic of my paper.

Cartere, Jason Y., ed. TV, Food Marketing, and Child Obesity. New York: Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2009. Print.

This book contains several different studies about the relationship between fast food marketing and childhood obesity.  I can no use logos in my paper because I can present hard facts about the effects of marketing to children.
