Regulation of Television Advertising

Regulation of television advertising involves rules and guidelines set by authorities to ensure ads are truthful, fair, and appropriate for all audiences. These regulations restrict certain content, such as harmful or misleading messages, and specify when and how often ads can appear, especially during children's programming. They also require clear identification of paid advertisements and may limit targeting specific age groups. The goal is to protect viewers, especially vulnerable groups, while allowing advertisers to promote their products within a responsible framework that maintains industry standards and public trust.
