Abstract: | Public concerns about the marketing practices of the U.S. entertainment industry-especially as it pertains to children -took a major public policy turn in June 1999 when then President Clinton raised two specific questions to be addressed in the study: First, do the industries promote products they themselves acknowledge warrant parental caution in venues where children make up a substantial percentage of the audience. Second, are these advertisements intended to attract children and teenagers. In 1994 and 1995, a variety of special interest groups expressed concern about violent lyrics in popular music and violence on television programming and their impact on children. |
