Alcohol comments/opinions?

Question

What comments or opinions do you have regarding media images with alcohol, stereotypes dealing with the issue of alcohol, etc.

Answer 1

The media's portrayal of alcohol is inevitably that binge-drinking is great and lots of fun, or that drinking alcohol is always bad and causes enormous problems.  There's really no such thing as 'responsible drinking' in Hollywood, on TV, etc.

You'll notice, the only people who drink in moderation in movies and things are inevitably bad guys.  James Bond is an exception, of course, but you rarely ever see him enjoy his vodka martinis, and anyway he's British.

Answer 2

I hate how they make it all fun "drink this & you'll look better, feel better"

It doesn't happen that way.

Plus that makes it very appealing for our children -
