Major media companies reeling from the prospect of losing $300 million in advertising revenue from a government crackdown on gambling advertising now face an even more expensive blow from a possible ban on junk food ads.
The study’s suggestions included government intervention to reduce fast food ads, restricting ads on TV between set times such as 5.30am and 11pm, or limiting unhealthy food marketing through “online media”.“Australian children’s dietary habits are sub-optimal,” the report’s authors wrote. “One priority strategy is to reduce children’s exposure to unhealthy food marketing, branding and sponsorships.”Unhealthy foods covers more than fast food.
