What is a key advertising restriction for alcoholic beverages?

• A. Ads can target minors with sports events
• B. It's okay to misrepresent if price is low
• C. Do not misrepresent product or target minors; ads must be truthful and not encourage excessive use
• D. Ads must always include a warning label

Answer: (C)

Advertising for alcohol must be truthful, not deceptive, and should avoid reaching or appealing to underage audiences. The best answer reflects these core restrictions: ads must accurately describe the product, avoid misleading claims about what it does or how strong it is, must not target minors, and must not encourage excessive or irresponsible use. This combination protects consumers from being misled and helps prevent alcohol advertising from promoting unsafe or underage consumption. The other ideas don’t fit because targeting minors with sports sponsorships is not allowed, misrepresenting for the sake of a low price is deceptive, and requiring a warning label in every ad isn’t a universal rule across all jurisdictions.
