In Response to Joe Littlewood

Alcohol Marketing:

In Joe's blog he talks about the restrictions that are given to alcohol companies when it comes to advertising on TV.  I agree completely with all of these restrictions.  Alcohol is such a dangerous drug that kill people every year, so the fact that these restrictions are given make perfect sense.  Too many ads subliminally are targeted towards minors and the marketers know it because they see a future consumer and want to get to them as early as possible.  I believe that, like cigarettes, alcohol should not be aloud to be advertised  on television because it is just too harmful.

Would banning alcohol from TV ads be going too far?
