Episode 31: Political Advertising: What Digital Publishers Need to Know to Avoid Legal Minefields
Description
We are just days away from one of the most consequential and historic elections in U.S. history. Political advertising spending is at an all-time high in this election cycle, with both parties vying for the attention and votes of undecided voters in our highly polarized society, especially in a handful of swing states. While political advertising is protected speech at the highest level under the First Amendment, there are still federal and state laws that apply to political ads.
In this episode of Perfect Balance: An Advertising Law Podcast, host Po Yi explores some of these laws with Manatt Digital and Technology Partner and Leader Eric Bergner and Government and Regulatory Associate Antoinette Bedros, particularly variations in these laws and compliance challenges for digital publishers when accepting political ads on their platforms.
