I thought the takeover was of illegal advertising. I would think that MTA has good management of advertising in the paid area of subway stations. Is the campaign also meant to deface advertising that is providing a subsidy to city services or are there in fact illegal commercial billboards at 14th Street?
I'm not exactly sure what you are saying in this comment. The PublicAdCampaign project is interested in establishing a critical understanding of all outdoor advertising forms. This does include contemplating the value of legal MTA advertising, which does help subsidize the poorly run MTA system. If you look into the revenue of the MTA system, you will quickly realize that the profits procured through the hundred of thousands of advertisements that adorn our mass transit system account for close to .0001 percent of the MTA budget. remember the MTA ridership is in the millions per day, at 2.25 per ride that closes in on billions of dollars per year. that excludes public subsidies like the 50 cent cab fare surcharge recently added to aid the failing MTA, and other government allocations. I think we should think about what we are actually getting in return for the wholesale auction of our shared environment before we call ad revenue a worthwhile subsidy.
Here is a legal advertisement! You can always rely on this https://dissertationauthors.com/blog/how-to-write-research-problem dissertation writing service!
If you find that your writing is a bit flat, or you have no interest in the topic, or even if you just don't have the time to look up the recommended reading and find testimony, than better buy an argumentative essay from reliable writers.
