A Critical Analysis of the Children's Food and Beverage Advertising Self-Regulatory Initiatives
A Critical Analysis of the Children's Food and Beverage Advertising Self-Regulatory Initiatives Kyle Asquith This paper critically examines the self-regulatory Canadian and American Children '.I' Food and Beverage Advertising Initiatives (CFBAIs). Responding to pressure from public health officials and policymakers concerned over childhood obesity, food and beverage advertisers have voluntarily signed onto the CFBAIs and through the programs have pledged to scale-back their ad vertising of unhealthy food and beverages to children. Through an analysis ofadvertiser "pledges" and other texts germane to these initiatives, I locate seven discursive frames that children '.I' food and beverage advertisers use to legitimize industry self regulation, fight off negative public perception, arouse doubt, and avoid regulatory intervention. These discursive Fames are also compared to those used by other historically controversial advertising sectors, such as tobacco and alcohol. I conclude that the strategies ofcontemporary children '.I' food and beverage ad vertisers are remarkably similar to those used by other advertis ing sectors that have faced threats oftighter regulation through out the twentieth century. his paper investigates how North American food and beverage makers are responding to mounting criticisms over children's advertising prac tices and threats of tighter regulation. Marketers and commercial media T place an incredible emphasis on targeting children, because children rep resent an audience of direct purchasers, purchase influencers by means of "pester power," and future brand-loyal consumers who can be trained on brand names be fore they can read or write. Driven by the idealized tween consumer and a deregu lated media environment, children's advertising has been booming since the 1980s. -
