Russian Lawmakers Seek To Ban "Beer Advertisements" on The Internet
Russian lawmakers have submitted a draft law seeking to ban beer advertisements on Internet news sites. Details from Kommersant:
The deputies of the "United Russia" proposed to extend the ban on alcohol advertising, which is already in late July to finally get out of the TV and outdoor advertising, and online media. As a result, ads only will move to sites that are not registered as mass media, such as thematic resources, search engines and social networks, experts warn.
The bill on amendments to Art. 21 of the law "On advertising" went to the State Duma on Friday, its authors - members of the "United Russia" Sergei Zheleznyak, Maria Kozhevnikov, Irina Rodnina, Igor and Irina Rudensky Spring. The amendments involve the prohibition of advertising of alcoholic products on the websites registered as mass media. The main purpose of the bill - "the creation of conditions preventing the consumption of alcohol by young people, including beer," explains a message on the site of "United Russia". According to Mr. Zheleznyaka quoted ER.ru, "a very large component of Internet users - young people," which, according to sociological surveys, drink beer starts at an increasingly early age. The responsibility, in his opinion, should be precisely those network resources that are positioning themselves as the media.
According to the law "On Advertising", is now banned alcohol, in particular, on the covers of magazines and newspapers, on television, radio and cinema, outdoor advertising, as well as in vehicles. An exception was made only for the beer, which so far can be placed in TV shows from 7 to 22 pm and radio programs from 9 to 24 hours. But from July 22, 2012 beer will amount to a strong alcohol, the main media outlet for which are only online and print media.
