The document discusses two media theories - Uses and Gratifications Theory and Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs - and how they are applied in advertising. Uses and Gratifications Theory proposes that people actively seek out specific media to fulfill certain needs, such as diversion or personal identity. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs suggests humans have needs of varying importance, from basic physiological needs to self-actualization, and this hierarchy is used to classify different types of advertisements based on the needs they appeal to, such as ads for beds addressing the basic need for sleep.
