A rabbi is sending a message to his community. If I am only interested in the flow of that message from the rabbi to the community, which communication model best explains that process?

I want my audience to purchase Froot Loops, a high-sugar breakfast cereal. I design my message to impact young children, hoping those kids see the commercial, want the product, and pester their parents into buying it for them. I run the commercial during prime cartoon times, on the appropriate channels. Assuming the goal is get kids to pester their parents into buying my product, which audience is not reached by my commercial?

Janet is attempting to convince first year students to contribute to a class gift to the university. She is seeking a $20 donation from each first year student. Before asking for that donation, Janet spends a significant amount of time talking with students about their first semester experiences, the joys of Streak Week, the bonding that's occuring as people move through the joys and struggles in adjusting to college.
