Just came across an interesting info graphic about rhetological fallacies:
Rhetological Fallacies – A list of Logical Fallacies & Rhetorical Devices with examples — Information is Beautiful — Infographics
Just a simple list with no detailed explanation but I like the way they give simple examples for each.
Note that some of the examples given are political/religious but I don't want to focus on that here.
Rather I think it's certainly good to be aware of these so you can perhaps be less influenced by advertising in the media.
Also I'm curious what people think of using these kind of techniques in advertising your own products or services?
Is it unethical to try to manipulate people in to purchasing using these kind of techniques which some would consider under handed?
Or is it ok if the product still provides value and you are using these techniques for the customers own good?
