Disney: Be the solution
June 28, 2012
Child obesity is a growing threat in America, which is why Disney recently announced their plans to develop nutritional regulations for the company . The new regulations would inhibit the Disney Channel from airing advertisements for unhealthy products on their child-focused channels.Although, it may burn bridges with some of the brands they currently advertise on their channel, the pros outweigh the cons. It may also be a motivating factor for some of these brands to incorporate healthier ingredients and do away with junk food. Kudos to Disney for the progressive move!Article: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/05/business/media/in-nutrition-initiative-disney-to-restrict-advertising.html?_r=2&hp
