Submission Text
Dear FTC members:
The alcohol industry makes an effort to target underage youth in their advertisements by sponsoring sports events, theme parks, and using youthful looking actors in their commercials. I believe alcohol advertising should be banned from TV and radio, as are tobacco ads. Every effort should be done to restrain the alcohol industry.
Sincerely,
Carol Mitola
