What is a Public Service Announcement? If you don't know what it is, Google it. In your own words, now tell me what it is? What are they used for? Can you recall an example of a PSA you've seen before?

A public service announcement is a short message produced on film, videotape or a DVD. They are used when a nonprofit group of people want to get a message to the media/viewers.  Public service announcements are used for getting people informed about a certain topic. For example there can be a public service announcement over smoking, animal abuse, child abuse, or bullying. I have seen a PSA over no texting while driving as well as a PSA over animal abuse.
