Never meant to apply to media or advertising.

We might use this is advertising to decide what target audience we might want to aim the product at. With the Hierarchy of Needs they can decide which need there product goes under which makes the planning for the advertisement easier. 

Physiological needs - Survival & comfort.
Safety needs - Stability, safety in family & society.
Belongingness and love needs - Social & intimate relationships. membership.
Esteem needs - Approval, status & sense of achievement.
 
Each stage of the Hierarchy needs to be satisfied before the next stage can be met. Some people might not be able to meet all the steps in each stage but they can still be happy.
