Since the 1920s, Madison Avenue has been used informally to refer to the American advertising industry (an example of metonymy, or calling something by the name of an associated thing). Many large advertising firms were located on Madison Avenue in New York during the 20th century.[2] According to the syndicated columnist William Safire, "Madison Avenue techniques" means "gimmicky, slick use of the communications media to play on emotions."[3]
