So, you're not going to take into account any other companies or products that use cartoon characters to advertise their products? Keebler elves? The Jolly Green Giant? The FTC needs to stop overstepping its bounds and trying to rule with an iron fist. Let consumers make their own decisions and let parents decide what their children should and shouldn't eat. Don't tell companies how they can and can't execute their marketing.
Ease off Tony the Tiger, Senator Harkin. Do you really want to put Tony out of a job? You should be ashamed.
